The Puffer Forum

6.6 Gallons When I bought him he was only a half inch. He was sold as a dwarf puffer. As he grew and I read on here I found out he was a GSP thats why I was tranfering him home. I am not going to put another GSP in the tank but I was thinking about 1-2 Dwarf Puffers. If you guys dont think thats a g...

Well I am frustrated. I was getting ready to move my GSP home from the office and did one last water change. Everything seemed fine and then he went belly up the next morning. Not sure what happen. Only thing I did different was a new bottle of prime that I bought from a LFS. So now that I am fishle...

I know I have read about keeping your puffer on live food, frozen food, snails, worms you name it. But I think I have a picky puffer. Dont get me wrong he loves pond sails or pest snails whatever you call them. I feed him about 20 or 30 per week. LFS tosses them to me for free. But my concern comes ...

Those snails are far to large for your sized puffers..Ideally you want to feed snails the size of their eyes. yeah it was only thing the LFS has. I am in Dallas and it seems like no place carries snails that small. I did see snails in a can? I kinda thought that defeated the purpose of helping the ...

ok i tried for now this will have to work But I was taking a shot of PuffLee whooping some tail on some snails and caught my two DP in the back ground.

That would be awesome but I am going to need to get a better camera my Iphone is not taking the best shots.
So let me work on that

Glad you were able to take the little GSP home. What will he be housed in there? Did you say you bought both dwarf puffers to put in your 6 gallon tank? If so you will probably have some aggression issues in a tank that small, as well as some possible water quality issues. From the pic it looks lik...

Thanks I had a eeling thats what he was. I went by a different LFS and found they actually had 2 dwarfs in stock so I got those and will be taking the GSP home. PuffLee can take out some seriouse snails. But he is not much for ghost shrimp or red claw crabs. He doesnt nip at anything. He is so laid ...

Hey guys I am new around here. Mainly been a lurker for awhile reading up on things. Can anyone help decipher something for me please. I have a 6 gallon tank at my office picture below. I wanted a dwarf puffer and I think the LPS sold me a GSP instead. Which is fine just means that I need to get at ...
