New here, from The Netherlands.

Post by Timo »

Hello!

My name is Timo, and i live in Holland. (The Netherlands)
I am 13 years old, almost 14. (June, 16)
I'm the owner of three South American Puffers, aka Colomesus Asellus.
I'm already a member from the Monsterfishkeeperforum and from the dutch pufferforum: kogelforum.nl

I'm here to learn more about pufferfish and how people keep them on the world.
I also have a dog, some horses and cats.
My aquarium is a Juwel Vision 180.

In a couple of years i want to buy a Tetraodon Lineatus. (fahaka)

With kind regards, Timo
A dutch pufferfish keeper. :D

[welcome]
I visited Amsterdam on a layover to Egypt. We were there for 5 hours during tulip season!

Your tank sounds perfect for 3 SAPs. Are you aware of their dentistry requirements?

Hi Filbert!
That's a really nice Fahaka man!
Nice that you visited Amsterdam, but i live on the other side of Holland.
3hours away from Amsterdam.

Yes, the tank is good enough for 3, i only want the best for my fish.
And yes, i know everything about the dentist. :lol:
On the dutch forum they already told me, but i don't think it's gonna be a problem.
The only problem is catch them.

Here are some pictures:

I also have been scuba diving in several of your islands in the Nederland Antilles. I like that you can sunbather there topless!

Thanks, :D

I just gave some food to my puffers.
And they are really eating like monsters.

I'm signed in on this forum to learn more about the Marine Puffers.
Because i like the Porcupine fish, and the Dog Face Puffer.
