I have kept 4 in a standard 1ft tank before. No problem. But I only recommend 3.

What you need is plants and decorations to break their sight. They will give up when they can't see the other party. If you are not doing a planted tank, just use plants like nana or moss.

But breaking the line of sight does not apply for puffers like fahaka. They just give chase and they are very persistent about it.

BTW, you can find irrubesco at QH. $2 each. Males and females have different markings on their body.

Dwarf puffers can be bred in captivity. A trio like you mentioned will be good. Maybe 1 more female if you feel like it. Really up to you.

Dwarf puffers can be sexed. Males will be smaller. Males also have a brown stripe at their white belly. So it'll be pretty clear.
