The Puffer Forum

Got any pictures? Whats the shop called?

I've got a leopard, zebra, snowball and albino bristle ATM. Anybody got a mango? Not sure if its photoshopped with the bright green. Tempted to get one their nice. Or a king pleco, the ghostly zebra ones with big sailfin

What Plecos do you have Pufferpunk?

I will try to get some pictures of my little ones in my tank.

Got my friend to take a water sample to LFS, will get the results for you.

I know that my nitrates are a bit off. Looking for medias to put in the filter to reduce them.

Guys my puffers been in a tank with ws3 and after 2 days he's only breathing from his right gill somebody please help!!

I've found people who breed for pleasure rather than profit and they will sort you with 1 male 3 females for free if you collect.

But they start breeding around a year and a bit?

But if you master reproducing storm conditions you can get loads.

Oh thats great!

Is that 75g / 75l?

Ive got a 60l which is either "Sugar Puff's" Snail Farm / Zebra breeding.

Thanks, still got a couple of months until he gets too big.

Hi Guys,

Decided to start breeding his Zebra Plecs.

Just wandering if anybody knows the tank size you would need for 1x Male and 3x Females to live comfortably in?

Cheers

Hello Guys,

Been told that the Mbu needs a lot of room to live.

I have a Mbu "Sugar Puff" currently ~5", I am planning to build or get him a much bigger home.

Anybody got any build threads / link to where you can get a good quality tank large enough to house a Mbu?

Cheers

Mbu - Sugar Puff

The water in the tank is from the shop that I got the Mbu from.

I have read you can smear soft food onto the rock for the puffer. What soft food would you recommend? Any decor to entertain the puffer you can recommend please. I'm thinking of relaying the tank with a row of flowers at the rear. I have 2x small barrels, drift wood, a cube and 2x medium rocks. Plea...

Feeding - Usually Cockles / Prawns every 4-5 days
Tank has been setup for about 4 weeks now and has been thorughly cycled for a 4 days without no fish in then added a pleco, colombium cat(no longer in tank), grey shark (no longer in tank) and a rainbow shark ( fudge)

May this be the reason why he sits on the bottom?

Usually when I walk into his room he will fly around the tank and follow me round but a lot of the time he is sat on the bottom.

Also i put a rock in for his to nibble on to file down his teeth but no markings of him touching the rock.
