Re: Two valentinis in the same tank
That's very good to know, PP - eyewitness accounts are priceless when information is scarce, and now I don't feel so bad that I tried adding another one to the tank. Everyone else's comments are appreciated, too, very much. Once again this site shows itself to be the only site to trust when it comes to puffers, since it's all people sharing their actual experiences with puffers over the years, and not just some dude spouting theories.Pufferpunk wrote:Almost every single time I have ever seen them in the wild, they have been in pairs or 3s.

Of course, that's the ocean, not a 20g tank...

Hehe so true. Well, I learned my lesson. I'm just so sorry that it had to result in the death of a sweet little baby valentini.Pufferpunk wrote:Of course, that's the ocean, not a 20g tank...

Re: Two valentinis in the same tank
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."
