I think so. Perhaps making a sub-section to the site here that focuses on all thing Mbu. We could get some articles and information to list in it as well. I think it will be a welcoming site for Mbu keepers.

You think just mbus, or all the giant puffer species?

Maybe all large puffers. Since there would not be that many mbu keepers.

Make it all large puffers and if we get tons of mbus in particular then in the future seperate them and make a mbu forum too?

I agree. Large puffer species is a great idea. I am excited about this.

Kinda riduculous, but I have more fish in my 10G than my 100G :)

Like Neon Tetras?

BTW, Neon Tetras are like 1/50 the size of my Barbs :) That's probably why...

... sounds pretty crazy.
I would like to add fish to my tanks, but I have these big fish and anymore would just bio-overload!

Yeah, a lot of ppl on MFK say to get some monsters for my tank, but I really think that it's a waste to just have one or two fish in a 100 or like 55G tank. Am I the only person that feels that way? Don't get me wrong, I love aros, gars, pacus, and catfish. Just that it seems a little wasteful for one fish. But if it floats your boat, hey, do whatever you want.

I agree, I would rather have a wide variety of little fish than one big one. Unless it's my Fahaka or something. ;)
