Back After Long Absence

Post by pufferpuggirl »

After finding The Puffer Forum on Facebook, which I spend (waste) lots of my time on lately, I thought I would re-visit the original forum after a long absence. I believe it's a been a long while since I posted anything, and just thought I might make more effort to participate once again, as I used to get great enjoyment from being part of this site.
I still have a variety of freshwater puffers: Abei puffer; Baileyii puffer; Bornean puffers (both a male and a female); Congo puffer; Cutcutia puffer; Dwarf puffers (2); and a Turgidus puffer.

I also keep a colony of Devil crabs, a newly acquired male and female Vampire crabs, and a growing colony of marbled crays. As well as other various tropical fish including a few species of gobies.

I had joined a group on Facebook about puffers and it's difficult for me to handle some of the advice being given to people, so thought I should get back to a REAL group that knows what puffers need and want. Happy to be here. :)

They aren't worth it Jeni .... because I couldn't pick up a Leiurus puffer when the guy wanted, he sold it for £3!!!! And it's not just that, it's someone saying he had a GSP in a 10-gallon tank and no one chastised him for it but me. And much more stupid stuff. I know people have to learn, but come on, some of it is just stupidity.
