Re: Constipated Puffer ?????
Thanks PP bought a clove of garlic, tried to squeeze out the juice but that didn't work. Can you buy garlic juice or use garlic powder in a bit of water and soak?? What can I get live for saltwater?

Re: Porcupine Puffer
They haven't been successfully bred in captivity yet, even by the most experince fish keepers. Not trying to dissuade you but these are the facts. Do you know what happened to your guy. Was the tank cycled? Only one for a 125 gallon even in a tank twice that size two of them most likely would not pl...

Re: juvenile S&S friends
With a 180l = 47 gallon you are already in need of a upgrade. I wouldn't be adding anymore stock until then. As far as the lion fish, no. Lion fish and puffer together with most likely end in a bad way.

Re: Starting Marine tank for GSP: I want to transition.
I agree with bertie. You have had your GSP for over 4 months now I don't think we can stress enought how important a bigger tank is.

Re: puffer queries
Hi nsmore at 4" he should be in a larger tank by now. We suggest 55 gallon minimum. You really are running the risk of stunting and permanent damage in that 15 gallon. What salinity do you have him in right now? Good luck with him. You should never ever try to make a puffer puff. Some will puff...

Re: Newbie
Hello Bignick and welcome to The Puffer Forum. Unfortunately your tank is to small for even just the dog face. They need a minimum 100 gallon by themselves. Secondly eel’s and puffer do not make good tank mates at all. Much larger tank for the dogface , separate the eel ( not sure if 46 gallons is e...

Re: F8 Overgrown beak - Unable to trim!
Hi Nervousnobody and welcome to The Puffer Forum. Unfortunately once the beak gets overgrown no food will ware it down. Looks like you’re going to have to figure out someway to get them cut back. Clove oil isn’t your best way for sedative, MS-222 (finquel) is much better. Don’t know what to suggest ...

Re: Puffer Jerking
It's a 110 gallon PP. danygee you do only have room for the dogface so returning all the others is your best bet. As PP stated you never have to remove fish when doing water changes.
