The Puffer Forum

Yoshi got stuck in the Bak Pak pump today ='( thank goodness I was there to see it happen and shut off the power really quick, but hopefully that was the "3rd." Not sure why it fell off, now it feels a little loose, but it's never happened before, and the skimmer is still relatively new. N...

ok, let me know when youre doing that then and ill see how my financial situation is lol what frame of time are you looking at? I should have almost everything to upgrade, picking up a canopy and more rock this weekend. That means that at the very earliest I will be tank swapping on the 21st, being...

LoL, it's a regular tank, so it could be a huge upgrade for your F8 (then you could add another one) :p and you have some time, I won't have all the stuff for the upgrade for another few weeks yet. Let me know if you want me to hold on to it for a bit for you, I would gladly do that =) wow, regular ...

Getting rid of it. Prolly going to put it up on CL and try to get what I paid for it back. how much would that be? =P $160. This may include the lighting with it. I just had someone on our local reef forum just offer me a slightly used black canopy with retrofitted lighting and a ice cap ballast fo...

If you wanna do a couple F8's or a GSP look for a 29-55G aquarium as they would love it in one of those and let your DP's have the 20G! You can get them on Craigslist for dirt cheap! I once got a 55G complete setup for 100 bucks! Too bad he isn't in my neck of the woods LoL. I am in the process of ...

Thanks for all the advice guys. Yeah If i were to get the bbgs i would put them first as I am well aware of fish and their territory issues lol. I was thinking around 4 or 5 bbgs and one figure 8 pufferfish and of course some snails for the puffer and the occasional ghost shrimp. It is only my seco...

Still makes me sad, she unfriended me on FB. I wonder what happened to SYN. Hope all is well with her.

90. Put a CPR rated for 60 gallons in addition to the dual pack. Gives me a total skimmer volume of "up too" 160. That was my idea, but I am not sure how right that is LOL

LoL I just went thru this myself not too long ago ^.^ 1 figure eight puffer can go in there. GSPs should be in 40+. Not sure about the bbgs. I never put any in my tank, but I did put nerite snails in there. I would put the bbgs in the tank first, then get the puffer though. The puff needs to be comi...

Lol, that's why it's good to have multiple people's input because everyone thinks of new/different ideas. Most definitely! Think if I add a CPR skimmer sump model rated for 60 gallons that that would be enough? Unfortunately, it's a huge hit to my budget, but, I want to make sure it will be ok whil...

Really nice, you have a good eye for tank decorating. Thank you! LoL, that is what two stick of Aquastick and three hours gave me (after the move, it was fun, but after moving the rock and the tank, I was sooo tired, hehe). It's a shame that it might not survive the upgrade =( I hope it does. Be a ...
