i really dont mean to get your hopes up.... i hope it is eggs... but i have also read that gsp eggs can only hatch in marine.... actually, i JUST read this like ten minutes ago hahaha. well, best of luck... and hopefully, if it is, maybe they will hatch... how about keeping an eye on your paramaters for the next week or so and see if anything changes? if it turns furry and white, and if it is eggs, they are definately dead... at least thats how it is with cichlids... i assume its the same with all fish.

is that good or bad advice guys? waiting a week or so...

Since no successful breeding of GSPs in captivity has been noted & your puffers aren't sexually mature yet, I can pretty much betcha it's not eggs.

Pics Please!!!

good point... welp! so much for thinking outside the box lol... guess whatever it is would be safe to remove... who cares what it is... its not a fish! lol youre right pp, it makes sense... didnt think about the age thing.... and i just plain didnt know they cant be captive bred.... i feel so new hahaha... at least im learning!

I wouldnt consider it impossible Ive sen a video on youtube of GSP mating. But I think its Fugus of some kind the way it was exlained.

HUH??? Was is fugus or GSPs? How do you know for sure they were mating? Were there eggs laid?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFc2Tvza ... re=channel <== that video series?

I can't tell what those are.

haha neither could I. I thought they were shrimp fry at first

They're white and have extremely long tails... Hm.

Didn't look like puffs to me.

those videos are cool! what type of fish do u think those are?

My guess would be some sort of livebearer--maybe guppy. What ever happened with your white stuff?

sooo the white patch was really a glue spot on the fake cave that i mustve just never seen before!

LOL! 2 pages!
