Even though I've been in the fish keeping game for nearly 10yrs I'm heading into a brand new area with keeping my first puffer fish and would like some experienced advice from keepers who have kept or keep tetraodon miurus ..
Like many others I've done alot of research on these guys before getting one and even though most of what I've read and checked seems on similar levels. There's a few parts that seem to be abit one way or another..
minimum tank size : seen 70-130 ltr ?? (Currently have a 85ltr but looking to go to a 180ltr as he is only a inch in size at the moment)
Sand not to use to fine witch I haven't (1-1.6mm grain) as I read it can impact witch makes sense but not to sure what effect that could have on a puffer that burrows into substrate alot of the time ???
Also set up style I've gone with plant and red moor tree root after looking at some videos of youtube in the Congo river basin and have that big undergrowth look going on in some parts but yet most posts say quite alot about having stones as they like to replicate them ?? I'm not to sure if that's because of the rocky parts in some of the rapids areas of the river but again answers I'm looking for
Any help greatly appreciated thankyou
