:D

Why not just turn your 40 gallon refugium into a dwarf puffer tank, and put a fahaka in the 155? BEST OF BOTH WORLDS! :D


well the refugium is built into the sump, and the sump is under the tank...

GIGANTIC Dwarf puffer tank or single Fahaka

i have a 155 bowfront and cannot make up my mind on whether to do like 20 to 30 dwarfs and breed them or just a single fahaka ( with no luck of breeding ) any tips, suggestions on different puffers or pros and cons would be great....

Re: couple theoretical questions

1) SAPs need more room becase there more active for the most part.
2) I have heard great success stories with thos 2 being together (just break lines of sight)
3) Because they will eventually make their way to a brackish environment throughout their lives.

hope all was helpful....
