Pea Puffer Breeding Question

Post by heatherp »

I had 2 pea puffers and thought they were both male. One was ALWAYS attacking the other so I gave the meaner one to my brother for his tank........ and it is doing well. I gave it to my brother approximately 6 weeks ago. This morning I woke up to find a tiny baby pea puffer in my tank. Does that make sense that a baby could hatch 6 weeks after the other puffer was removed?

Today I went out and bought frozen baby brine shrimp and she appears to be eating it.

Thanks for any insight!

Are you sure it's a baby puffer? Any other fish in there?
