Re: Great site! Newbie here!

Thanks for the welcome guys! Pufferjw: Not at the moment. It's being used for a grow out tank for my baby mystery snails. Some will be sold to other aquarists, others will be "re-purposed" for my future dwarf puffer lol. I can't count all of them, but I'd estimate around 60 of them. With m...

Re: Dwarf Puffer Set-Up Ideas

You would think that the better filtration capacity would help since they're so messy. Thanks guys! I'm so thankful you're all here to help!

Re: Dwarf Puffer Set-Up Ideas

I've been wanting to try a canister, and I guess I've found a good reason lol.

Re: Dwarf Puffer Set-Up Ideas

Honestly, I'll probably try the canister. If it doesn't work out I can swap it for my Aquaclear 50 on my 20 gallon.

Re: Dwarf Puffer Set-Up Ideas

I don't know much about Canister filters to be honest... Is there a certain model or size? Perhaps just look for one with about 100 GPH?

Re: Dwarf Puffer Set-Up Ideas

That all sounds fantastic! Only thing is, I'm now going to have to get another filter lol. Probably an Aquaclear. I don't know why, but for some reason I thought that I could use two leftover sponge filters from a bulk buy. Should've known, oh well. :lol:

Dwarf Puffer Set-Up Ideas

What would be a general rule for Filtration in a 10 gallon tank with 1 Dwarf Puffer? I plan on having loads of plants including Anubias Nana, Water Wisteria, Java Fern, Java Moss, and Anacharis. Would those be acceptable? Also, would Play Sand (Thoroughly Rinsed) be a problem? Sorry for all the ques...

Re: Great site! Newbie here!

To be completely honest, I think all of my questions have been answered really. Between articles, and forum posts, I can't think of a single question lol. What I meant by "doesn't contain information I need" I meant that the articles were about different puffers that I'm not interested in,...

Re: Great site! Newbie here!

Oh, I've found the library :lol: . I can't stop reading the articles. Even though some don't contain information that I need, I love reading about it. Aquariums are so fascinating! Definitely packed to the brim with information, and I'm not complaining :lol: .

Great site! Newbie here!

Hello! I ran across this forum while researching Dwarf Puffers, so I decided to join! I currently have a 20 gallon long Freshwater tank with 6 Kuhli Loaches and 3 Mystery snails. It has been running for about 6 months (minus the month to fish less cycle). Recently my snails started mating and laying...
