Hello Puffer Owners.

Post by Redramshorn »

Hi all,
My name is Paul, I own 2 Dwarf puffers, and was just wanting to meet people and share experiences with like minded puffer owners.

I am into parrots mainly and own a successful parrot website but im also into my fish, including koi, and my puffers.

Interestingly I also have a Red Ramshorn Snail farm at home. very large now. I sell them on ebay as a hobby and to pay for my koi hobby.
Well thats me really, I look forward to talking to you all.

Paul

I recently added a pair of dwarfs to my collection. They're the cutest! Can you sex them?

Your profile says you own, "2 dwarf Figure 8 puffers"

Do you own dwarfs or figure 8s or both?

Welcome!!

Here is the profile for a figure 8, go look at it to make sure the puffers you have are indeed Figure 8's. Figure 8's require a specific water chemistry so we need to make sure yours are figure 8's...
