This is my 2 Gallon Fluval Spec tank. The tank is extremely well filtered thanks to an large 3 stage filtration system in the back of the tank. This tank needs to be over filtered because dwarf puffers are voracious eaters and go crazy for fresh blood worms, snails, and brine shrimp. I wouldn't recommend a tank of this size unless you have insane filtration and a TON of places for you puffers to hide. And no more than 1 or 2. I'm eventually going to get a bigger tank when I get a bigger desk.
Just a tip for anyone with Dwarf Puffers, they can be picky eaters and one thing I've found out is they NEED fresh food. I used to put my blood worms in the refrigerator and noticed my puffers were not eating. I tried everything then noticed they only ate the worms straight out of the freezer. An easy way to do this is to get a plastic container, fill it with a little water and then add the blood worm frozen cube. Let it thaw out and distribute the worms evenly throughout the water. Then when frozen you can break the ice into small easy to pick out and feed your fish. If this is unclear let me know and I'll put up a video on how I do this.
If you're wondering my puffers names are Puff and Daddy =)
