The Puffer Forum

+1 to PP. I would stay in a corner too if i am in there.. on a side note, I think I see some white grains on him.. And behind the fahaka i can see the inlet of the filtration built into the tank at the very bottom.. I hope u do eventually get substrate and the decos in somehow.. perhaps somw alteration need to be done.

Your eyes are bright,She suffered severe trauma, because when I change the water careful not to breathe it

She felt the danger and inflated, I blame myself very sad

She does not feel safe! This is what we have been trying to tell you all along, your problem will get worse and more frequent until these puffers are housed properly. Now the question is whether or not you can cater for their needs?

she have not sick and no bacterial infection,a little skin injury .Last month, the white spot disease, but has been cured completely.She is strong,everyday she would eat shrimps and I will almost finish cave. But I will not set the disco gravel.

I'm just looking at the picture you most recently posted and although very hard to tell looks like some grains of salt on her. I find it easiest to first spot them on the fins as tiny white dots. If she was in with your sick congo you most definaly should be treating her for ich also. Ich lives in the water so any and all fish in the same tank will probably be infected (especially with such a severe case you're congo has). How and for how long did you continue treat last time?

T.k we did not say you need disco gravel. You do need substrate of some kind! You also need to provide suitable homes for these fish.

He was being cute about the fact he is NOT using the "disco gravel".
Her's using Google Translator, so some words get lost in the translation.

Yes, you most definitely do NOT need disco gravel Your fish would appreciate even a thin layer of substrate and some hiding places though

Try to work towards something like this:




Trust me while it may make the tank look a bit crowded the fish will be grinning from ear to ear... err shall I say... gill to gill.

NIce Tank.

Tank looks nice. Not only will the fish be happier but it's much nicer to look at

Contains all about my tank all,thank
I will Increase hiding places.
The adjustment period has been exceeded,so my fahaka is very happy now

Two months ago, the movie

TK she is looking nice glad you are working towards a better environment. A word of caution try not to overfeed. How often are you feeding and how much? They should be feed til their bellies are slightly rounded. Here is a link talking about overfeeding viewtopic.php?f=2&t=149
