Hello from the Midwest

Post by r-g »

Hi all!

I am new to the forum but not new to puffers. I have three dwarf puffers (which are new) and a GSP in full marine (had him for about three and a half years now).

GSP: Fugu
DPs: Fugu Jr., Kitsune, Legato

I am also a goldfish fancier and breeder. I have too many of these guys to list!

I look forward to being an active part of this community. Even though I don't have as much experience with tropical and saltwater fish as I do with goldfish, I know the basics of aquarium husbandry and hope to be able to contribute in a positive manner.

Hope to see you all around! :)

Welcome :)

With your goldfish experience you'll definitely understand the need for large tanks and large water changes ;)
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.
