I think you would be ok with the 3rd or the 4th one. Even though the tank is a little small.

I dont know how they would do in a tank that size, but I see the Spotted Puffer alot here in the water. I like them except when they eat my bait. They arent very big so it should be ok.

Valentini grow to 4" and need a bigger tank, IMO.
Spotted and saddle puffers seem to get even bigger. The blue puffer seems to be the smallest, but I still wouldn't try it. This book is very useful for stocking ideas, IMO: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...119852-4390246 The author has a number of good books.
