    What do you mean, "not together"?

    I mean that the fish would be housed alone, no other tank mates. Also keep in mind I do not mean minimum, but enough for them to grow to their full potential.

    I think a 110 or 120 would be a nice home for them.

    I think of the fish listed the Wrasse's would need the MOST VOLUME. Those fish seem to swim at 110% almost all the time. The Bird Wrasse especially. I would go even larger then a 120 for those 2. SOmething in a 6-8 foot length, at least 36" wide and say 24" tall. But I assume we are talking hypothetical right?

    Well more or less I am trying to figure out what would be a good tank mate for my 5” Grass Puffer. He should max out at around 8”. The tank is 80 gallons 48”x20”x23”.

    If you had a 80 gal with this puffer what would you guys add?

    Here is a pic of the tank and hiim:
