The Puffer Forum

That is so sad. I think if my better wasn't around, i might actually tear up a bit. Damn, you sure know how to paint a lasting picture. That had to kill you inside.

WWM?

Answer to the tank question: 29gallon.

I'll be posting pictures of everything i have in a little bit - i'm trying to post another tank (80gal) that i can't use.

Can i be directed to a detailed explanation & setup of the drip system. It sounds very interesting and efficient.

oh yeah, lisalisa, this is only a first attempt. i want to get it right. I don't want to consider myself stuck with freshwater.

I was sittin @ the computer, thinking about the best way to go about getting some heat on his tiny 2 gallon cuz the 10gallon wasn't ready yet. But I wanted to put him/her into the RIGHT size tank. I smiled at him/her through the computer desk, got up to walk around and greet him/her and the puffer w...

I'm going to get this show back on the road and make things RIGHT. I want to get rid of my guppies all together and purchase 2 GSP's and 1 F8. When i DO finally have everything i'm going to need to keep a puffer happy, is there a recommended place that I can go to purchase these highly intriguing cr...

If i put a submersible heater on the 29gallon tank (where the guppies are currently residing), that'll warm up the tank - yes. But The puffer has no heat right now - and if i put him into a tank that's been heated, won't he go into shock? I DO have 2 300watt heaters (fully submersible) that we were ...

Ok, so I gathered from the responses that I am to wait about 2 weeks WITH the sacrificial guppies in the 10 gallon. Btw, the fiance & I discussed it and I am now free to move the puffer into the only larger tank that i can make available (the guppies current 30 gallon home). Only catch is - I ha...

This message is primarily for "ybenormal", but he said i ought to post any questions i have to the main board so that other could possibly benefit from the advice given. The scenario<sp?> I have *1* Green Spotted Puffer. Right now he's in a 2 gallon hexagonal tank with regular aquarium gra...

So I follow the directions on the back of my "Deep Six" yellow packaging that say lower the hydrometer into the water until the "dam" is covered with water. This is weird. I think I'm having a REALLY rough and bumpy start with the saltwater exploration. And somehow I knew it woul...

PLEASE DO NOT PUT HIM IN THERE! I don't intend to jump into anything anymore. My only 2 mistakes were not reading up thoroughly on this saltwater process & buying the puffer before having read up on it. I will no do anything un-rational to my new puffer. I want to enjoy him/it in all it's glory...

It's approximately 3pm in the afternoon on Friday. I've purchase a 1.45lb(659 g) of "Oceanic"'s "Natural Sea Salt Mix. It was only about $4 @ pet-smart. The bag said to pour the entire contents of the bag into 5 gallon's of non-chlorinated water. So I got out my 5 gallon tank with scr...
