Re: Tetraodon Schoutedeni

I have some Cardinal tetras, Black darter tetra, and pseudomugil luminatus, and some Corydoras with the puffer. No aggression towards other fish.

Re: Tetraodon Schoutedeni

For those of you who have these guys, what other fish do you have with them, and how long have they been together? Have you seen any aggression? I have some Cardinal tetras, Black darter tetra, and pseudomugil luminatus, and some Corydoras with the puffer. No aggression towards other fish. Small fi...

Re: Tetraodon Schoutedeni

Mine have the same feeding habit. My puffer loves snails and frozen blood worms but not too much fan of freeze dried krill. -_-

Help with Gender Identification

I recently acquired a spotted Congo Puffer and I don't know how to determine the gender.
Can someone please give an info on what to check.

Thank you! ^_^

Re: FS: preorder C. Lorteti puffers

$200 for shipping? LOL!! Did they put the fish on the crate for shipping? Wow... The extra $27 I paid for puffer is for overnight shipping..

Re: Tetraodon Schoutedeni

Mine is swimming around ever since I transferred it to the tank. I mean it sat top of the leaves of my anubias for a minute then started swimming around again. .

You might want to post it to another Forum also like monsterfish.com, etc..

Since you're from Seattle, post it to http://www.wafishbox.com/forums/ if you're a member there too.
