So how often should i feed them? I promise I'm not an idiot. :p I feed them frozen cubes of bloodworms. Once in the morning and that's it. Should I be feeding them two a day?

My fish provider (RMS Aquaculture in Cleveland, OH) said the same thing most of you are saying. Once we get the SG up more increased activity and such. But he said since they're the only things in the tank, they should be ok in a 20gallon. These guys only get to about 3 inches each. And they've been...

Lol. I def. agree with the world take over. It's just because I live in a dorm and there's always a lot of activity in my room. I think they just like to watch. They're still babies so i haven't began to add any salt. Within a week or two we'll start raising it very little each week. around a 1.005 ...

I have 2 F8s that are just amazing. They are the most personal fish I have ever seen. I gotta love them to death; they're my little boys. But sadly, they're the biggest creepers in the world. They sit at the side of their tank and just stare at me. I'm wondering if they're bored or what. They have p...

I've been doing a water change everyday and I've already noticed a huge difference in their activity level, color, and how much their eating. Thanks guys for all the help

Went and got a test kit... I'm a little afraid of what I found
pH:7.8
Ammonia:7.0
Nitrite:>1.0
Nitrate:>5.0

I'm using a Saltwater Master Test Kit API

What do I do?

Well update: They're both perfectly white now and happy as can be. I'm guessing I just went too long without a water change? And I'm def. getting a water kit tomorrow. Can anyone tell me what are the levels I'm looking for as far as nitrates and such

I use Instant Ocean salt and have a hydrometer

I have my two GSP's. Probably 1.5-2inchs each right now S.G: 1.020 Temp:78-80 Problem: First off Stinky(the bigger of the two) is perfectly healthy. Very white stomach and eating like there is no tomorrow. One of the happiest, and funniest, puffers I've seen. But for some reason Pablo(a little small...

Hello my name is Robby. Current college student and Akron. Pretty much fell in love with puffer fish when I used to see them at the zoo. Finally got some of my own and hopefully gonna learn quite a bit from these forums
