F8 Puffer in A biocube?
Can I house only one figure 8 puffer in an 8 gallon biocube? It is only going to be the only fish in there.

Re: F8 Puffer in A biocube?
Nope, you need 2 or 3 times that capacity for an F8. I have mine in a 29g and I feel that is barely enough. You could get a dwarf puffer in there though.
To me small tanks are like a small jail cell for someone that committed no crime. And they usually end in the death penalty.
I wouldn't want to live like this.
Besides, how can you resist this...
Do you already have the 8 gallon? If not and you have the space why not go bigger.

There are many knowledgeable fish keepers on this forum willing to help and give great advice...The advice is free; What you choose to do with it gives it value.

Min, 15g for a single F8.
