The Puffer Forum

OK all... I am getting ready to test the water and do another water change. I have the blood worms soaking in the vitamin supplement and will give that to them right after the water change. I am also going to take the one of the filter media's and put it in the 29g to get the cycling started on it. ...

LOL.. Yum... They were so good!

You guys crack me up!

Tested this morning and the results were pH - 7.4 Ammonia - 0 ppm Nitrate - 40 ppm Nitrite - 0 ppm Salinity - 6 ppt SG - 1.005 Going to do another water change this evening and will check the paremeters again. I read the article you posted for me Trekenk and I am starting the cycle process on it. I ...

OK.. I gave her some blood worms this morning and checked on her again when I got home. She was acting better, but I am still going to transfer Google and her sidekick(other GSP) to a bigger tank and leave the Spot (F8P) in the 25g high. I tested the water with an API liquid test kits and here are t...

Pufferpunk, I just wanted to let you know that I read the thread for Fish_are_friends (Giggles).

To follow Giggles example, I am also going to start a log book of my weekly paramete...

Trekenk, I did read the link. Thank you for posting it for me. It has helped me understand the process better and will do that once I can get her back on the mend.

Google still eats just not as much as she used to, which was another reason I am so worried. When feeding the clams on a half shell, do I just drop the whole half shell in? I haven't done that before.

I will get the liquid test kit tomorrow and post the findings. I have another tank that I can transfer the F8P to, what size tank would it need? So, the rule for GSP is 30-35g per puffer? AM i understanding that correctly? I just want to make sure I get the right size tank for them. I really want th...

Trekenk, Thank you for the reply. I am sorry for having posted this in the wrong forum. I am new to this sort of thing and it took me several minutes to even figure out how to post. 1. I will post these parameters tomorrow. I ran out of test stripes yesterday and was not able to get the store today ...

I am new to the forum and am quite frankly in need of some help. I have a GSP that is really dark on her belly and it basically sitting on the bottom of the tank. Her BW level is 1.005 and I am slowly bringing it up to 1.010 but am unsure how long of a period I should spread it out over. I am really...
