/sigh ... fake plants here are SO EXPENSIVE..as is most pet stuff regardless if it's fish or pedigree dogs... it's a huge money maker here.

well, I'll try anyway with some plants and perhaps just get the ones that latch on and now worry about planted. /sigh!

This is correct. I tried a planted tank once and failed miserably.




BTW, guys, two of these puffs are ready to be adopted if anybody has a proper setup for one. The fatty needs to be housed all by himself because he is an absolute pig and will overeat when housed with another. I had him in the 15g with one of the others and I had to take much care to specifically feed the other one and it was difficult because fatty is very smart when it comes to food.

I'll try to get some good current pics of them.

Actually the smallest one has the best personality and is the one I want to keep. He is the most docile when it comes to food and he likes to stay up front without flinching when you move towards the tank. He also has a little perfect circle right between his eyes.

He was also a bit skinny for my liking so I separated him and spent extra time checking for IPs and treating as a precaution. I treated several extended times with both Prazipro and Jungle Parasite Guard. His poop is perfect. As are the other's.
