  1. Default would this do anything?

    I am getting a red eye puffer tank, and i was going to have a pair and 2-3 otos in a 10 gallon, but my mom said maybe we could get a 15 gallon. Could I get any more fish?

    I believe the 15 gallon is the same footprint as the 10 gallon, so I would guess no to more fish but a resounding yes to better water quality!
    8 tanks running now:
    1x 220 gallon, 2x55 gallon, 1x40 gallon long, 1x29 gallon, 1x20 gallon long, 1x5.5 gallon, 1x2 gallon
    Gouramis, barbs, rasboras, plecos, corys, tetras, fancy guppies, swordtails, ottos, rainbow shark, upside-down catfish, snails, and Max and Sparkles the bettas.

    i think the next size difference is a 20 but i think that only adds 4 more inches to the length
    5 gallon-- my oh noes emergency tank
    10 gallon nano-reef-- clownfish, coral banded shrimp, snails, hermits, live rock
    46 gallon community-- tetras, danios, gouramis, platies, guppies, glass cats, corys, pleco

    Red-eye puffers yes, with Otocinclus, no. The puffers will eventually (or immediately) kill the Otocinclus. Puffers need to be kept alone, as they will taste any tankmate you put in with them. With their little sharp beaks tasting is usually fatal to tankmates. A puffer tank is a great place to get rid of unwanted snails; they adore them.
    And more is better as to tank size, so push for the 15 unless you see a 29 for a good price . . .
