Hi Puffer Forum! :D

I am excited to be part of this community celebrating all things puffers.

A little about me:
I had a brackish aquarium when I was younger that had Archer fish, but school and work got to be too time consuming to maintain any aquarium for a while. Now that I am done with school and have settled into my career, I feel ready to get back into the aquarium hobby again. :) As luck would have it, I received a 65 gallon setup (tank, hood, filter, light, stand) from my sister for Christmas. Woo hoo! I won't actually get it until the end of January, but I am still super excited. I have done some research on what tank I want to set up and I have decided on a brackish system again with Figure 8 puffers and some Bumblebee gobies and possibly raising snails for them(haven't made my mind up on the snails).

Glad to have this community to turn to for education, advice, and more. Thanks for having me!
