A question for owners:
My puff still hasnt gotten the bright colors that I see in some other photos of the species. He's is a dark tan color. Is that a normal color variation?
My Puffers: Filbert, the 12" T lineatus Punkster, the 4" red T miurus Mongo, the 4" A modestus 2 T biocellatus C valentini C coranata C papuan Also kept: lorteti DPs suvattii burrfish T niphobles
0 Nitrate or undetectable Nitrate?
Did you have it tested at a store> It's possible the employee rounded down for you. Hopefully that's the case. Zero ammonia and nitrite, and detectable nitrates are the sign of a fully cycled tank.

Well it was below the next measurement, it wasnt outside the first color. Im sure there were some nitrite but it was less than 1 ppm i think

Those are good readings; keep it up.
He is quite happy! He is a light tank color. Since I've added the live plants he seems to have gotten happier, he now loves the flower pot. I stuck the Pennywort roots through the back of the pot, nestles right in amounst the roots.
On another note, how often should I feed him? 3 times a week mabe?
