The Puffer Forum

Since this isin't major health issue i don't think i need to post the parameters or really anything else. So, my puffer has been a picky eater from the start. When i first got him he wouldn't eat anything until i found out that he loved dried plankton. He was on that for a year, then when he grew, i...

And that's the weird thing I've had him for 2 years and he has never been this bright before

His belly is bright white as it always is. But i have noticed the difference in his yellow corloring. He has always been a darker color, i would say almost greenish except for a bright yellow florescent color on top of his head. And now he is all bright yellow and no green color at all. Is this kind...

ok and you have the false clowns?

Ok do you have your clowns hosting in any kind of coral and what kind do you have? I used to have my guy when he was younger in a overstocked 20 gallon freshwater community back before when I did not know that they were aggressive fish and he ended up killing everything in the tank. Now he's current...

what size tank do you have them in? i'm still considering taking a chance with putting my single 3 inch gsp in with a clownfish in what will be his new 47 tall full marine tank. Do you have any fin nipping or severe fighting or stress going on with your puffers and the clown?

i'll try to enter, i'll see if i can figure out how to

i may end up putting 80 pounds of live rock in the new tank, although i'm not really sure how to setup the rock when i get it, especially since the tank is only 20 inches wide and not really much space at the bottom of the tank, which means there won't be much room for my lil guy to sleep in the san...

ok i've now decided to just keep the puffer by himself hopefully with the bigger tank he will stop going up and down the sides and be happy

i'm also thinking about the maroon clownfish as they sound like their personalities are very similar to puffers and get about the same size, my only concern though is as with the tomato clown the min tank suggestion is 30 gal where i only have a 47 gall

i just did a little research about them and i don't mind that their a bit agressive as my puffer is pretty agressive, but my question is the different minimum tank size some sites are saying 20 and some are 30 gallon and that they get to 5.5 inches.

Would both still work in a 47 tall?

ok i'll read up on the tomato clown

a some what decent pic of me, not the greatest though as i hate taking pictures

Has anybody kept them together successfully? The tank is not yet setup or anthing but it is a 47 gallon column tank and will be a FOWLR system, and maybe some green star polyps. I've always wanted a clownfish but my puffer is aggressive and has killed mulitple fish in the past. But now that he will ...
