Cheers from England!

Post by koffeekake »

Hi this forum is awesome, lots of great info! I just got my GSP about 2-3 weeks ago, he's happily living in my kitchen :) I'm thinking of getting him some tank mates, possibly a sun burst pleco? I'm new to the puffer world, but not to fish in general...we also have an 80gal tank with a BGK, 2 silver dollars, 2 discus, red tail shark, pleco, cory-dora and clown loaches :) (sadly lost a few rainbows and discus to a parasite - either velvet or gill flukes :( )

Have to admit that my GSP has a special place in my <3 right next to my GKF ;)

GSPs do not do good with tank mates..especially since they need to be in brackish or full marine...but some people have some success with a few marine fish such as clowns and damsels...but tankmates also depend on your tank size..what size do you have?
