New DP's

Post by Tang »

I just got 3 dwarf puffers last night for my 10 gal :twirl: . So far they're doing good but one of them (i'm guessing a male) is kind of chasing the other ones around so hopefully he doesnt become a problem. But other than that it goin good!

Be sure you add tons of decor & utilize the entire height of the tank.
