GSP Journey Has Ended

Re: Green Spotted Puffers 12 years and counting

haha Of course! And yes I totally agree, I only go to specialty aquarium shops anymore. Even the local Petco and Petsmart are not that great.

Green Spotted Puffers 12 years and counting

Hi all, haven't been on here (and most forums anymore) in a good bit beyond lurking, but I thought I'd share that my GSP's are still around. Its been 12 years with them in a 55G marine tank as I first got them in 2012 sold as freshwater puffers at Walmart. I converted that 55G tank to full marine wi...

Mine hated them when they were little and stayed at the bottom all the time but now since they are big they don't seem to care anymore. lol

Re: I neeed help deciding which puffer is for me.

Agreed with the above points. A F8 or DP is a good start.

No Petco or Petsmart or some other kind of pet shop with aquariums?

Re: OMG look at this video

Kinda disturbing how it tortured it by biting the claw, then a leg, then its tail and then went in for the kill by literally scooping out its brain.

Re: thinking of picking up a gsp but....

You can drip acclimate get a bucket with the puffer and a standard air tube with the current tank water and run it like a siphon to the bucket. I would just keep your current SG and get the Bio Spira and some live rock. No need to waste more salt aka money. lol

They are better off in full marine... Blinkey hit the nail on the head with his statement.
