The Puffer Forum

I've got a UK 20 gallon long, and I'm fairly sure we used one bag of aragonite from the lfs. Fifteen quid springs to mind...it was over a year ago and I'm very old now, so my memory's not what it was.
I don't think substrates differ much in price...I've not noticed it at my lfs.
What're you gonna do with the tank?

When I say fifteen quid, that's the price, not the weight...I think we got ten lbs, but I don't like deep substrate.
As I've split the thread, can you keep Qs about substrate etc to the brackish section from now on to avoid confusion?
I've just posted this in the hospital section by mistake!
Pami.

these forums are going crazy for me.

15lbs is WAYYY more that you need for a 10g.

Try to keep a thin amount of gravel like under 1/2" for cleanliness

how much did you get for 25 cents

stephen

do you know how many pounds will i need to cover the bottom of a 10 gallon tank

stephen

Just play it by eye, and estimate how much you will need.

BTW I just bought rubble coral from the LFS

thanks for all the help.
does anyone know if this is a ok internal parasite medication Aquarium Products Gel-Tek Ultra Cure PX-4 oz. ???

stephen

Can you take this to the brackish section, guys? I split the thread earlier so that the parasite bit stayed here...I think I retitled the split-off bit "1 inch gsp".
Go over there for my comment on how much substrate and what to do with it
Pami.

does anyone know some good nutriental foods that the gsp should have. and what i should feed them regulary. should i have a feeding schedule of different foods for the week. any advice or help would be greatly apprecitated.

thanks

stephen

Stephen:

I suggest you check out the Library section of this forum -- some very informative and fascinating information therein. In particular, an article entitled "The Care & Feeding of Green Spotted Puffers" will most probably be of prime importance to you.
