The Puffer Forum

Good decision!

You did the right thing.

Don't worry about it, it takes a lot of courage to admit and do that

WTG spottedpee. It does take alot to admit your mistakes on a forum. You have my respect for that.

proud of you for taking the advice! trust what you read here, everyone here wants you to enjoy puffers just like we do. yes that might mean taking a 14 inch fish, sticking it in 120 gallons by himself and that sounds ridiculous but the reward is much greater than the possible doom of multiple fish. keeping puffs in a species only tank, and of appropriate size with correct maintenance, will help represent your fish's personality best. you will enjoy the hobby the best when everything runs like its supposed to. fish keeping shouldnt be a chore, and thats what having inappropriately stocked/maintained tanks make it seem like. hope everything goes well from here on out

yay! he sure is cute.
