Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
Was it just the eartheaters you had with them? Perhaps they were being pushed around? Stocking level will change now as my cycle did not go well over the festive period and we have a blank slate again. Can't remember if mentioned here now but as they found babies (1 inch) I am getting TWO shoutenden...

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
@pufferpunk - did you find the exoskeleton or anything of the third one in the end? What did you decide with the seller in the end? I have an exciting update that just received confirmation the oddball specialist contacted have sourced two for me! They will be getting them Thursday, they will need t...

Re: Hello from Singapore
Have you tried live bloodworm or crushed snails? Another recommendation is to soak the food in garlic juice as it can entice them to eat. The pics - they don't seem to have shrunken bellies. Are the ramshorns large compared to puffs? They might need smaller. When next feeding try staying and observi...

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
@pufferpunk - hope the last one pulls through for you
@devildog999 ah fair - will check with the LFS once he is in the country and check what their quarantine procedure is.
Has anyone heard or tried of whole dried snails?! I've found them on Ebay

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma

I have my Schoutedeni on order and now the waiting game for him/her to get into the country and be quarantined. i have other places looking for both so if manage to get a breeding pair eventually hooray! The red eyes definitely seem much much less known...

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
@gkai - I am paying a rather pretty price for mine but after a lot of consideration this is the puffer best for me and my settings. So I am sucking it up and hope it settles in all well. I put feelers out on Aquarist classfieds, locals and recommendations - surprisingly I wasn't shot down instantly ...

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
@PUFFWHO? - oh wow thank you for sharing - they are very cute! Gorgeous markings. I have ordered one today so watch this space! Love to see their permanent tank set up when sort out, they are beautiful. Not come across nightcrawlers before from what I can see they look similar to earthworms? So I'm ...

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
So looks like I will be getting 1 schoutedeni - will be ordering in the next couple of days! I could do with some assistance on stocking. As you can see from pic at top - sand substrate, live plants and mopani wood with external canister, heater and LED lighting. The mopani wood appears to be going ...

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
@PUFFWHO? thanks for the input - have you any pics on here of them? (Always nosy to see lovely pics of puffs!) I would have to start with one and some community fish and hope can find more later. My hubby is happy to put christmas present towards puff so the schoutedeni might be a true possibility!

Re: Schoutedeni, SAP or Irrubesco dilemma
Yeah, I've put lots of feelers out on both Schoutedeni and Irrubesco and will see what comes up.
Someone can get a schoutedeni for £280 which seems steep compared to another LFS price if they can get them. So just needing to mull over
