The Puffer Forum

I've been looking for more info on puffers, found this site and thought i'd say hi.

I currently have the following tanks

700l community tank ruled by Jeremy my Herichthys Pearse
120l community tank
50l with a couple of goldfish...daughter's tank lol
50l with 2 dwarf puffers

I swore i wouldn't get anymore but my wife has fallen in love with my DP's and wants her own puffers so i've just acquired a rio180 for her.

I've got lots of reading to do on here but was thinking about some figure 8's. In the mean time i'd welcome any other suggestions or advice on suitable freshwater puffers, thanks

Also just realized f8's are brackish, nearly every store i've been to claims they're fresh

Yeah, they normally say that. However if you keep them in BW they can live to be in their mid to high teens and they will be much healthier.
