My name is Luke and im from Cincinnati, Ohio. I have one baby GSP in a ten gallon that i will be moving shortly to a much bigger tank. Just need some advice! What salinity levels do you prefer for babies and then how to introduce them into higher salt levels? What decor do you guys use in your tank to keep them occupied? And also last but not least the diet?!
Thanks Guys,
Luke

Welcome
You can slowly raise SG as soon as you get him a bigger tank. Using marine salt raising sg no more then 0,002 per week.
