Hi from Canada

Post by seeparks »

Just wanted to drop a line and say hi from Canada! I've recently bought 3 dwarf puffers and I'm in the process of setting up a nice 10 gallon tank for them. I hope everything goes well and I appreciate the PufferPedia section which has tons of info.

They're in a 2.5 gallon tank at the moment. I've purchased a 10 gallon which is all setup but I'm waiting for it to cycle. I hope it won't take too long.

If the tank they are in is cycled transfer everything over to the bigger tank including the fish,filter and anything else moveable. Then keep a close eye on parameters and stay heavy on waterchanges and you should be golden.
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly
