The Puffer Forum

Fts

Long awaited update! I haven't had the chance to pick up some dry rock to add to the tank, but I have added a couple fake plants since these pics where taken. I was at the LFS and saw the fattest GSP ever. The ones that we normally see are heavily infested with internal parasites. Please don't flame...

Here is the link http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=220527&st=80&start=80 It looks like he's just going to discount what I said-I'm not very good at debating :( I guess figure 8's can tolerate full marine, but when I've Google'd I have only found a couple rumors of f8's in m...

I'm a member on another forum, and was reading a thread by a guy who had a GSP in full marine, that died when he moved to a new house. He just posted pictures today with his new puffer. The only problem is its actually a F8 :( . I'm pretty sure a Figure eight cannot survive in a marine tank. I expla...

So I can't decide if I want more live rock or not. I may just toss some fake plants in there. What do you think? I'm def gonna get a protein skimmer or diy one.

You win pufferpunk you always do

Or TobyVision lol

that does look great! I hope you used outdoor lights :) What is that line across the back of the tank? The line is the water level. I keep using water from my reef tank when I do water changes I just dump what's left in the tv. The lights don't look as blue in person, kind of 20k I'm thinking about...

update, Trying not to spend money on a tank is hard. I have finally ghetto'd some led Xmas lights into a chloroplast sign to make a light. I have been slowly filling this tank with old water from my reef tank. I imagine the nitrites are really high haha. I'm trying to stay cheap as possible with thi...

update! after some thought I've decided to go with a Toby of some kind. I put in a false wall and took the swimming space to about 27 gallons. I couldn't put a gsp in there with good conscience. I really dig me some Papuan Tobies. I ended up painting the background a primer gray, I figured it would ...

That is going to look really good once it is all said and done. Keep us updated!

My uncle asked if I was going to be watching sponge bob. haha

Welcome :) I'd stick with a smaller marine species :) A GSP will get too large for that tank and putting them in a smaller tank to begin with may cause stunting. Yeah that's what I feared. I guess I'll have to get this thread moved when I figure out what species I'm gonna get. I could do f8's but t...

I would have but to build a tank out of it would have been a ton of extra work and money. I'd have to build it out of plywood/epoxy resin and get glass cut for the front. Besides a 29 aga fit perfectly with 3 inches to spare on the side

here's a pic
blue tape is where false wall will be
