Can puffers be kept in a community tank?

Pretty mixed then. I was thinking of outting one with some silver dollars and silver sharks.

I'll have to look into them a bit more and of course find somewhere that sells them fist.

Not when they are small. There is a tiny amount of salt in the water.

They don't need it, but they do much better if it is brackish.

Now, that was a very long time ago, when I was a kid (and my dad would stand me on a chair and dunk my hand into the tank so the puffers woud come up and nibble/carress fingers when I was good.)

OMG Becca...I thought you said your dad would dunk your HEAD into the tank. The mental image had me rolling in fits of laughter.

Eeeesh, I need sleep!!
