Hello from Wales *waves*

Post by GemsandDai »

Hello all, just wanted to introduce ourselves!

We have never kept puffers, but have been keeping trops for a while now. We have recently upgraded our 90l community tank to a 180l, so once that is up and running we will have a mature 90l free, and I (Gems) am really fancying a puffer!

Look forward to posting more!
Tanks:
90L Community - Dwarf Puffers x4
180L Community (Soon to be up and running) Inhabitants currently living in temporary tank - 3 yellow Rainbows, 1 Odessa Barb, 1 Bristlenose Plec.
27L Betta - 1 Male Betta Splendens (Crowntail), 2 Albino Corys
