So it turns out that I am going to be moving from Georgia to Maryland (10 1/2 hour drive) probably in a couple of months, and obviously I want to bring my fish with me. I'm not particularly worried about my goldies or my bettas, but I am a bit worried about my GSP. I'm worried that he might be more ...

I took your advice about feeding my puffer food soaked in prazi, and I think he's starting to gain a little weight! o:

My first GSPs were severely stunted (many, many years ago before I knew any better). Despite that, they lived in their too-small tank ~10 years for me and a handful more with a friend who adoted them from me before he moved to another city (with puffer) and we lost contact, so I don't know how long...

My green spotted puffer's name is Samwell. I named him after Samwell Tarly from Game of Thrones. In fact, all of my fish are named after Game of Thrones characters lol.

Has he shown any white stringy feces? The tank could use a bit more decor for exploration. Good luck with him. I don't ...

Welcome to the forum, good on you for providing a suitable home. He is looking a little skinny so it would be worth treating for internal parasites just to be safe, this will not stress the puffer but could potentially help long term. What salinity are you currently running at? I treated his tank w...

Hello there! My name is Sarah and I live near Atlanta, GA. Here is the story of how I ended up with my adorable Green Spotted Puffer Fish named Samwell! So about a month ago I saw an ad on Craigslist from someone selling a 10g tank and a filter, heater, hood/light, decorations, and a puffer fish for...
