I have a mirabello aquarium, 2ft x 1ft x 14" with a ceylon puffer " murphy " and a pair of black knight gobies ( 1 male, 1 female ) who have lived together for about a year. The aquarium can run on just one plug for filter heater and lights so is an excellent aquarium. I have added a ...

i can safely say i have learned my lesson from this, and definitely wouldn't buy again, even if there eating in the store in front of me i'm going to have to walk away. Sometimes you have to admit defeat and i'm waving my white flag on this one!!! I think i'll stick to what i know in future to save ...

my main reason for sharing this story is because i know most people will fall for them if they see them in the store, as i did, they give you a look as if to say " take me home please!! ". Although i did have a real bad few days luck wise i have to say that my luck has changed slightly. I ...

i have 2 lionfish. 1 volitan and 1 spotfin lionfish. My puffers do the same thing. I presume they work the same as on a stonefish that the harder you push down on them the more venom they inject, but dont quote me on that.....just a guess. I also have a rabbitfish which is also venemous but he alway...

They get along okay, the lion has a pop every now and again but it doesnt even bother the puff at all, he just ignores him. As far as i know the lion is only a threat to anything he can get in his mouth.....well...
