Re: large and small pufer?
sorry, meant 100+gal
Re: large and small pufer?
Nope. A large dogface shouldn't be in a tank that's anywhere near 10gal either. How long until your 90gal is set up?
ETA: Not really relevant anymore is it
What are you planning on having in each of the tanks? The dogface and the other one in the 90gal?

It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

ok, i have a 120g tank in it is my df pufer,3 damsel,h.tusk,pinktail triger. i will be getting a 90gal to set up tomorrow.
my question is can a dog-face pufer and a Striped Dogface get along? i have seen multiple df pufers in the same tank before.

Re: large and small pufer?
how about a divider? you could get a lighting pannel grid from the hardware store for less than 15 bucks... that should do for a little while until your other tank is set up. just a thought.
i use lighting pannel grids, and hold them in with large suction cups. you can cut them to fit the size you need. (they are plastic grids with 1/2" holes, used to disperse light from flourescent tube lights)
i hope this helps a little... it would probably work for temporary purposes anyway, especially if you dont want to risk passing up that lined puff & it not be there when ur ready.

i would be wary of keeping them together even with a divider. puffs are super resourceful when they want to cause troubleJ-P wrote:Kilo you mean egg crate? yes they can be usefull if anchored correctly
