Re: Pea Puffers

If you use filter media from an established tank, your 20g should have enough bacteria to handle the bioload from 3 tiny puffers diluted in such a large tank. Water changes are never a bad thing.

Re: Hiding peas

Give them some time to get used to their surroundings, they blend in fairly well. Do you see them when you feed them?

Re: Puffer is Really Pale

Totally normal for sleeping. Eating plants, searching for snails. 1/005 is good.

Re: F8 puffer poo. Parasite?

I agree with your fish store. Your SG is fine, no higher. I like 1.005-8.

Re: Help new Fahaka Puffer stressed

If you treasure your other fish at all, then YES, I would put the fahaka in a tank by himself! They are proven killers. They are known to go on a hunger strike when moved to a new tank. After a few days of settling in, they may eat live earthworms.
