Downsizing reef to have puffers

[KingSpaded]

So right now I have a 180 mixed reef tank. 7ish months old. The coral is all growing at a decent pace and all are very happy. I always wanted a dog face puffer and I knew I would be putting another tank in the house. Pet I having dollar per gallon sale and was gonna pick up a 75 for the puffer and other FOWLR fish. After research I don’t wanna out the puffer in that small of tank. So thinking of moving coral and some of the cuc out of 180 and into a 75. Puffer then will go into the 180. I have yet to buy anything so nothing is in stone yet just curious what you guys thoughts were. Having a big FOWLR tank and smaller coral.

180 fish included. Blue tang. Yellow tang. PJ cardinal. Lawnmower Benny. Pink bar font and pistol shrimp. 2 clowns. 6 line wrasse. Blue Chromis.

Thanks just looking for input if anyone has down sized.

do you buy livestock from petco??

Yes some of my fish come from petco. The guy that runs the aquariums has his own maintenance company and just works there on the side for a few hrs. They have nice looking stuff and people around my area have never had problems. I have had problems fish and coral wise from 2 out of the 3 LFS around me

Sounds like a good plan to me, I prefer my dfp to a reef any day.

Ya they are fun to watch. Don’t get me wrong I like my coral also have about 35 different corals in there now.
