Re: My puffers-trying to determine if LFS is misinformed
Thanks eieio for directing me. I found silus, but I wonder why it doesn't come up in a simple search for silus? That's weird. Anyway, I'm curious how long it took for everyone's modestus/silus to reach full size? I'm planning to talk to LFS today and insist on exchanging fish so I can start somethin...

Re: My puffers-trying to determine if LFS is misinformed
When I try to search for "silus" in the PufferPedia, I get nothin'. I searched for just Auriglobus and just got A. Modestus. ??

Re: My puffers-trying to determine if LFS is misinformed
Apparently, other LFSes are also labeling my fish as "Neon Green" based on this thread: http://www.thepufferforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=15445&p=158182&hilit=+neon+green#p158182 . It might be same chain of stores based on location (NY, OH and two in IL). I just wonder w...

Yeah, they don't look anything like the tetraodon cutcutia.

Re: My puffers-trying to determine if LFS is misinformed
Yes, it has info on Auriglobus Modestus, but "Neon Green" isn't listed anywhere on its own or as an alias for Modestus, so it isn't obvious, except by the photos. http://www.thepufferforum.com/forum/ug.php/v/PufferPedia/Freshwater/A_Modestus/ I've thoroughly read that article and another I...

Re: My puffers-trying to determine if LFS is misinformed
I got 3, on their recommendation, for a 6 gallon Fluval Edge. HOWEVER, if they are going to get to be 4" (approx), this is a bad idea. Also, if they are not dwarf, I have to think about having a regular supply of snails. Also, I have to know FOR SURE what they are so that I can make sure the wa...

My puffers-trying to determine if LFS is misinformed
I was going to post this in another thread, but since you asked! It's kind of a mystery (or not?) I think I'm going to be needing to call my LFS and let them know they are grossly mistaken, but I want to be SURE. They were labeled as "Neon Green Dwarf Puffers" and labeled as brackish. Well...
