Tank Size for GSP's

Post by 3puffs »

Hi!

New to forum & GSP's. Could someone tell me how I go about figuring out a good tank size for 3 GSP's? Gallons/fish? Anything?

Thanks

Welcome!

I recommend having a read over at the puffer list. see Tetraodon nigroviridis.

The short answer to your question is 30 gallons per fish.

Plants will not last long at all during the move to Brackish and ultimately Marine conditions. I think what Asuran meant was heavily decorate the tank to break up sightlines--a good idea. :)
