The Puffer Forum

When I first got my figure 8's one tried to bite me but thats mostly due to curiousity and to see if I was tasty. Haven't had problems since then

Mine are currently still in a freshwater because I'm trying to let some of the plants grow a bit more in hopes they wont completely when I go to brackish. Planning on going up to about 1.005. It all depends on how I see them doing.

I came home today to find one of my dwarf puffers on the bottom of the tank almost black and not moving. So I quickly move him to see if he's dead which he isn't. My other puffers are fine. When watching him yesterday he seemed fine, swimming around the tank like normal and eating like he usually do...

The only way I can think that it go in there was from the heater which I kept for the tank when I upgraded tank sizes. ...

From what I've seen most people dont go above a salinity of 1.005. This is what I'm moving mine up to slowly and what most people seem to have.

I recently decided after a great deal of research to try and find some Figure 8's here. Not sure why I chose them but it sort of just came to me. Planning on starting my tank up after I get back from a trip in August.
