and how many saps can i keep in my tank (120l 30g)?
but how hard is trimming there teeth? is it something you easely can do at home or should you take it to a vet?

i would like to know about them aswell, im thinking if im going to go for dwarf puffers or for saps, anyway i dont know if this helps but i went to an aquarium shop in apeldoorn (flip kluin) and they said i could have as many as 5 or 6 saps in my tank.. i am rather hesitatant to trust someone at an ...

I have not started mine on too many snails yet. Mostly blood worms for now because they are so very tiny still. I do use trumpet snails when I can find some that are tiny enough for them. I put the snails in that are about half the size of the puffers. There is a snail breeding article in the libra...

Well it depends on how big they are when you will be able to sex them. I agree with the male to female ratio, though I have not sexed mine because they are still small, or I can't see. :) When your tank is heavily planted, and the lines of sight are blocked, there shouldn't be an casualties.

i am setting up a 31 gallon tank (120) liters now and i was searching for some fish with personality for it and afther a long search i came to the conclusion that dwarf puffers would be really nice to have. then i still wanted to ask some questions regarding them and i just googled puffer forum and ...
