The Puffer Forum

Hi.
I currently have a 20 gallon freshwater setup, and was thinking of getting a small ( 5 gallon) setup for a Dwarf Puffer in like 2 months. I am looking for all the stuff i need to know for something like that. Some links would be helpful also. Thanks.

Thank you for the link.
I am planning to get a XL Critter Keeper as the tank. Is that a good idea? I need suggestions for plants, filter, heating, food etc.
I want the initial cost to be under $80.

I don't understand... You're not setting up a 5g tank, just floating a Critter Keeper inside the 20g?

I apologize. I changed the wording. I meant to say as the tank.

Also, is tetra safestart ok to use before i put them in to "take out" the cycling process?

Only 1 DP in a 5g. Why not just use a real tank? Safestart may or may not work.
