Hi there everyone. I have recently bought myself a trio of puffers.
These were labelled as Indian Puffers ? I have tried researching them online and too me the nearest thing they look like are Ceylon Puffers. I have kept tropical tanks for some time but theses lovely littles are brackish. Would live some help here.
Thanks
I have tried uploading a pic using the upload attachment option but it's saying 'invalid image '?

Hi welcome to the forum. Where bouts you from? Without a pic it's impossible to ID your puffers, did you resize the image to make it smaller?

I am using my HTC phone at the mo due to having moved and no broadband currently.. If anyone has an email address I could send it too then they could post it for me? Sorry to be a pain but whilst I'm restricted to using my phone I feel a ill useless. Unless I'm just trying to upload an image wrongly?

Have you tried uploading the pix to Photobucket.com. Once the pic is uploaded to Photobucket you can click on the 'Direct Link'. Then when creating a post you click the 'Img' button and paste the info inbetween the 2 Img

Look like figure 8 puffers to me, I could be wrong though. How big are they?

Those are t. fluviatilis. They lack the eyespots F8s have.

Same care & feeding as the GSP, except they need 40gal each.
