Post by Sponge bob »

I've never heard that common name before, although I would guess probably the dwarf or GSP since those are the most common types.

Would this be the puffer in question? http://www.barcodinglife.org/pics/FSCS/ ... 127830.JPG

I'm not and if I do its going to be a small one for a few weeks till I get another tank up and running. Unless I can do a quick cycle from the filter in my 3g and some gravel from both tanks with some algae laying around on this big sea shell. And take the water out of the 3G like half and make it brackish and put it in the bigger tank, And add water & use my cycle thing I have...GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR SOUNDS HARD. =(
