you should start now, so you have a better chance, then if you don't get it, you have an empty cycled tank. :twisted:

Well, if I have an empty cycled tank, then I will be obliged to put fish in there. Besides, why move my Silus and check out craigslist for a new tank if I'm not gonna get it? Besides, I'll have to QT it in the 20G anyway w/ the Silus in the 10G.

I can't have him right now I was really hoping to find another big tank for him but the only tanks I have is a 14 gallon and a 10 gallon. I also have the 55 gallon marine. My boyfriend really wanted the puffer but I told him he needs a 20 long and then we were upset but I hope he gets a really good home I feel bad that the lfs wants to get rid of him. We have only seen this puffer once and and my boyfriend really liked him but with the new marine tank we can't afford a new tank. Unless he can live in a 10 gallon then I'm out good luck to who ever gets him!

Alright guys, you're killing me! Fish Food PMed me before any of you posted but I haven't heard from him/her since that day & I really need to get the fish out of that shop. Crazedpuffer has a good set up ready for it & posted next in line, so in all fairness, I have to send it to him. I feel really bad that there is only one... I wish I could send each of you a hairy puffer! :(

CP, please PM me for details.
