The Puffer Forum

I went to petco today to buy some live rock and when i got home i noticed their was a Candy Stripe Pistol Shrimp on the rock so i placed it in one of those net breeder things inside of my aquarium and I was wondering if i took it out would my Gsp eat it?

Yeah he'll def get eaten

yeah that's what i thought... Anyone know whats good to feed it?

Shrimp are scavengers & live in the rockwork, not in nets.

Yes I know they don't live in nets but that is the only place I can keep at the moment as I dis not know I was gonna get one as it came on my rock . I have a new tank cycling and I will put him in it in a few days.

Can you fit a few pieces of rock/rubble into the net for him to feel safe?

Yes I just put some in. Thanks that was a good idea.

Happy shrimp!

They are diggers . I feed mine sinking fish pellets. If you have a spare tank add a watchman gobie with it , a very cool pairing.

and if you were in my area I would GLADLY take it off your hands

love the video! hes just doing a little feng shui

has your puffer shown any interest in him being in the net? As he was a freebie i would put it in and wait to see if he does get eaten. Just my thoughts. He may stay well away, you never know

Wow! It's a little bulldozer!
