Setup for T Turgidis

Post by perek »

Well I think I have finalized the setup for my soon to be puffer. I will be getting a 20g tank with a Penguin 170b Bio-Wheel and a 100W heater.

Anything else I'm forgetting or should consider?

Thanks!

Mine loves his flowerpot/cave. Spends all day in it.

I have decided on a 20 gallon long aquarium. I'm gonna make a river setup and have lots of plants(eventually). And natural earth color smooth gravel. I want this tank to be all natural looking.

If mine isn't in his flowerpot, he's in a plant. They like lots of cover & hiding spots.
