The Puffer Forum

not trying to argue or anything but what is the expensive thing about brakish? From a few quick calculations, a bucket of instant ocean should last me about 10 months-1 year. Am i forgetting anything? Haha, i really wish i could do saltwater. Its better to go big but going big is expensive. Its che...

hm, i might ask them what day they get their shipment in. Im just scared of keeping dwarf puffers because they look so small and i'm scared i wont be able to take care of them. Are there any good online stores that have good puffers but cheap (but still good) shipping? The problem with online is th...

I just added a 2 to 2.5 inch black sailfin molly and a 1.5 female black molly with my 1 to 1.5 inch gsp. Dont worry I did a big water change changed the setup and added all of the fish at once to avoid territorialism. Well the problem is the big sailfin is chasing my gsp around. My GSP will get clos...

Hello all :D I am going to have an empty 20 gallon long soon and was thinking, should i get one gsp with no other tankmates for it? Now i know that a minimun of 30 gallons is required but i dont have that (yet). I would get the fish from walmart since that is the only place i see that sells it and ...

This is the stuff I use in my 55 gal http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.j ... Id=2753224. It works well and looks really nice. It cost a bit more but not to much. I recomend it.

speaking of which, I did the same thing just opposite. I have my 55 gallon set up with a 150 watt top fin heater. I thought I read somewhere that you need 5 watts per gallon to heat a tank to about 85 degrees so I cranked my 150 up and let it sit overnight thinking it would at the very least keep th...

after long periods of study, Im pretty sure its the substrate that settled on the decor after I did a 90 percent water change. When I touch the plants the stuff falls down, the stringy pieces are a bit unsettling but Im doing my weekly water change today so Ill check them out. Sorry to araise an ala...

All of a sudden I've had an outbreak of a tiny white stringy fungus (I'm not sure if its a fungus or not). Its on every thing in my tank all over all the decorations and the fake plants. So far this hasnt effected my Judo but I want to get rid of it asap. My parameters are fine Ammonia 0, nit 0, nit...

is it possible we shouldn't be using jungle products ?

Chomps ate a snail this mornin ! I'm so happy !

Actually the life gaurd I used was from instant ocean.

there seems very littel point in buying a quiet cansiter filter only to have an air bubble working? These are not necessary at all. All they do is ripple the surface thus creating a larger surface area which is where the gaseous exchnge takes place. You can acheive the same efefct with no noise by ...

It was noted under the advanced info on a web page selling lifeguard... Geuss I should have bought it online instead of at the store, stupid me. Now little GSP is dead, my wife found him this morning stuck inside the filter intake , he was still alive but had his insides comming out so he was agone...

Well I had a similar problem. My sick little GSP was just this morning sucked into my filter intake and died from wounds caused by it. He was weak because of IP's and I had just treated him with medicine. I left for work and he was sleeping at the bottom of the aquarium, and my wife woke up to him b...

Well I wish Nick or Agnate would have replied to my IP threads earlier.

It would have been useful to me before, now its too late.

Dont use meds, I highly recomend the Pumpkin seed method. I havent tried it but the other ways are to dangerous.

Im a little disapointed. :( I didnt read the title right, didnt realise you said TATTS! :shock: That will teach me to get my hopes up! J/K :ontopic: Nice Tatts. Im not into them, not for the pain as much as the fact that I know I would hate it in 10 years. Only way I get a Tat is in memory of a lost...
