The Puffer Forum

Nom nom nom

That looks great! I just got 4 pea puffers too and I was wondering what you feed your little guy? (am I allowed to ask that on this thread or do I have to start a new one? Sorry still learning the ins and outs of the forum) Thanks and cool that you have some too. Also feel free to ask any questions...

Thanks I wanted a natural look

More pics, his tank and him

I finally got a pea puffer I set up a 5g fulval chi tank for him and quickly found the filter and light it comes with sucks. So I ordered a new light off ebay and bought an aquaclear 20 filter.

Thanks now I just have to endure the slow cycling process

I apologize for not adding where I got the rock. So basically more live rock and to get my skimmer going asap? Also just to double check, was I correct in thinking this is an immaculate puffer? Yes, get more live rock asap. Base rock when seeded with established live rock takes a minimum of 6 month...

After looking at the pic I thought that the one corner looked empty. So I fixed it

I got the tank set up today. I had some nice plastic plants and I bought and boiled a piece of Malaysian driftwood. So far I think it looks decent. I think I will add some Java moss to the driftwood and maybe someday I'll swap out the plastic plants for real ones. Tank all clean and ready to go http...

My dps said to tell you that a 10g would be easier ;) Easier in the sense that a 10g is bigger so it should be more stable then a 5g? The irony of that is that for 95% of the population that would be true, whereas I seem to be the exception to that rule lol. Coming from a SW background I've preache...

Thank-you for the light and plant information, this is good to know. I am going to be setting up the 5g as I really like the look of the fulval chi tank. I've read various temptures that DPs should be kept in. Some say 70-74 others say 76-80. Since that is a pretty big difference I was wondering wha...

Lol that's true their big puppy dog eyes make you want them. However I like the idea of a low matenence 5g more then I want more of them

Thank-you for the link.

What is the best substrate to use for DP's? Sand or small rocks?
