Looking for advice and info

Post by CanuckPuffer »

Hi All, great forum. I have read a few and gotten some great info. I have had two puffers for about two years now, both GSP's. One is 3.5" long and the other 2". I a preparing to move them into their new home, a 75 gallon corner tank, 24" high with 1.5" of sand. They are living in high brackish/ low marine salinity at 1.018 and may up it to 1.020. I am hoping to keep a few feather dusters, coco worms and gorgorians to help with their messy eating habits. Does any one see any problems with having these in the tanks with the puffers? The puffers are kept well feed with a varied diet. I am also wondering if I could keep an eel in the tank with them? A small eel, 6" would stay in his tube 80% of the time and roam abit at night.

Thanks for any info and advice,

not sure about the eel or the feather dusters.. if it moves usually it is fair game (especially if it is smaller).
