I'm having a hard time finding info on what I could put with a porc puff in a 90gal FOWLR

possibly: Picasso trigger,a chestnut eel,a wrasse, blennies (I don't mean all of these in at the same time, it's an and/or)

Check Here

You don't have many realistic options though. I dont think the tank is big enough for another puffer, and most fish don't get along with them. Some wrasses may work. I doubt the Trigger would.

The only thing LiveAquaria says yes to is Tangs, and Squirrelfish. Triggers, with caution, and reef safe wrasses, and other wrasses with caution.

Porcupine puffers get VERY big. That being said, they might get along with most fish. I had mine with a maroon clown, snowflake eel, volitan lion, and had no problems. Now these were all larger fish. Small fish might be a problem. Also, small hermits will not last, other then red leg hermits. Snails will also be eaten. A friend had one and it didn't get along with any fish.

According to that chart, most of those fish would be fine.

Any opinions on the puffer, a Coral Beauty angelfish, a Kole tang, and a bi-color/midas type blenny?

Your right, I was reading the chart the wrong way. Oops. :lol:
