The Puffer Forum

I am going to do that, but like I stated before I read that in an article on feeding young puffers. No worries though I am going to try that. After I "fast" him should I offer other foods?

yes. after fasting try adding a worm. Most(key word lol) cant resist a good wiggly worm

Lets hope so! lol yeah he's not himself lately...so im not sure what to do. I need to do more water changes!

You can never go wrong with that. Well, you can, but let's not get too technical lol.

Well the water is out of wack...I need to get the liquid tests yet, next paycheck!!!!! along with his NEW tank

I hate to be brutally honest. A 40g with that bio load is bad news. You will keep getting the same problem until the bigger tank is good to go, upping your w/c routine will help. I would recommend doubling w/c schedule to protect your little buddies

Yeah I know 40G is too small at the moment, but the puffer seems to be comfy in it for the time being. I am waiting on the people to call me to come pick up the 225gal tank since it needed resealed!

So for w/c do them like 50% twice a week?

I would say 50% daily until you have the larger tank up and running

damn...thats a lot! I am still waiting in the people to finish the tank
