Water flow

Post by Mariaqua »

I little question!

I have a C. irrubesco and I would like to know what kind of water flow he likes (or for the puffer usually?)? When I got my first puffers, I got the information that they like slow water flow. In my tank, there are roots where the water falls so the flow in the tank is low! I realize that I don't really know if it's a good thing! Can you help me?

P.S. Sorry (again!) for my English.

Nearly every puffer species I've kept has preferred very high water flow.

That said, I've never kept irrubescos (unfortunately).
