Considering some type of puffer for my 180 fish only . However I have a lot of flow in the tank. I'd think a roundish "spiny" puffer wouldn't do well in strong flow. I'm actually looking for a type of sharp nose. I do have spots of low flow but wanted to know if these fish do OK in a lot of current.Don't want a fish that's stuck hiding behind a rock wall or such. Any OP? Thanks !

My valentini puffer is in my mixed reef with no issues at all often see him swimming in the higher current areas of the tank without issue. Can't speak about any of the larger puffers.
