Greetings from Ireland!
Hi all!
I've been lurking in the shadows and benefitting from the forum do long now that I thought it's high time I joined
I've been cycling a 15g brackish tank and running a snail breeder 5g, and hopefully my Figure 8 puffer will arrive around St. Patrick's day, as planned.
I hope Paddy the puffer will settle in OK, I also hope you won't mind me looking for advice if needed.
I also keep a 65g with African cichlids and a small community tank.
Looking forward to hearing more of your experiences with keeping puffers!

Re: Greetings from Ireland!
What kinds of puffers are available there?

Re: Greetings from Ireland!
Strange. I was sure I replied to this yesterday! ???
Thanks for all the greetings!
Howdy neighbour to you, lesleyanndunn!
Hey pufferpunk, I love your avatar; sweet! Did you design that yourself?
I haven't seen many puffers for sale here, but my good old LFS has ordered in a batch of F8s especially.
Can't wait. I hope they are a healthy bunch!
***ah; I have just learned the difference between "Save" and "submit"; heehee!

Re: Greetings from Ireland!
Someone at a different forum surprised me with that great design. We have it on a t-shirt at the Pufferstore, if you want to wear one.
