The Puffer Forum

Thinking of setting up my old 260 liter tank to put some amazon puffers in
But don't know much about them
I do know they are not very aggressive
But how many should I put in together
And can they have tank mates
If so what can I put in
Have looked on net and it's no help as every page days something diffent
Thanks

Most important thing you need to know about them is they need 99% of their food to be snails or you will have to do dentistry work on them every 4 months. That means getting a fish tranquilizer, knocking them out & clipping their teeth. They also prefer to live in groups, so this means doing dentistry for all of them.

What are your plans to upgrade your GSPs? I think you should work on that, before getting more fish.

I have a 750 liters tank coming for my gsp
They will always come first
The amazon are just on the thinking stage
Will be awhile before I get them
Just doing some research
I would never get a new fish til I know how to care for them
I'm still thinking about keeping my 6in gsp in that 260 liter tank
Also how do I upload photos
Want you all to see my gsp and set up

Store them at http://www.photobucket.com & link them to here.
Happy to see you doing research.
