Last week my boyfriend and I bought a medium-ish ceylon puffer (name: Boomer), it was very skiddish but is coming around so I took the opportunity to take a terrible picture. Feeding it hasn't been a problem, really goes after snails & we tried shrimp but not sure if the puff or the goby ate it.

THEN our very friendly lfs asked if we wanted a congo. We did't NEED another puffer, we had six, but it came in & was an awesome orange color, only about an inch and a half long. So yeah, we bought it...and it's already taken down 3 baby home-bred guppies. Took a couple of quick/terrible pictures of that one too.

Now the puffer count is at 7! If you all have any "be sure NOT to do this" or "they really LOVE this" for congo's or ceylon's specifically feel free to fill us in (yes, we did look at the articles on here - pinkie swear)!

Both of your new additions are very cute, especially that Congo. I have a soft spot for them, just something about them that I like.
You sound like myself because I have a hard time saying "no", and basically if I've got the spare tank, I will have the puffer. It's a disease. :lol:

If owning a puffer (or several) is a disease - I don't want the cure! Haha.
