Two of Twenty ( Update of my new MBU )
Just to let you all know, my new MBU Puffer called Midge is fine, he eats well, I feed him once a day, but there is snails in the tank, the food I give him is prawns, muscle and muscle in a shell, is there any thing else you guys feed yours?

No reason to continue starting new threads. Please stick to one thread about your mbu.

Yeah, I think it counts posts within the same thread, if you are aiming to get your post count up.
What size tank is your mbu in? any tank mates?
Can't wait to see pics!

Re: Two of Twenty ( Update of my new MBU )
I'm just curious, is there any reason that you only have your tank lights on for 3 hours a day? Is the tank in an area that naturally bright (by a window, etc.)?
