Just Order a Canthigaster Valentini - PICS INSIDE

Post by By_a_coo »

Hello all,

I've ordered a canthigaster valentini and I'm gonna get it tomorrow morning.

I have been reading all topics I could about their behavior, feeding habit and everything else.

My 46G SW tank has been running since march/12 without any fish, just my montiporas and some zoas. WC = 20% monthly. The lighting I have 2 T5 39W + 1 T8 30W. I dind't test everything, just calcium = 450ppm, KH = 7, pH = 8.3, salinity 32g/L, temp = 26ºC.

I offer to my F8s and my SAP, shrimps, (mostly) snail, mussels and bloodworms (2X a week); so have all this food in stock.

I'm thinking of not put any tank mates for now.

Is there anything else I should know? Any suggestions?
I don't wanna lost him in vain and I wanna make sure to keep a healthy with no disease puffer (since it's a expensive fish around here :shock: ).

Thanks in advance,
Fernando.

They seem to be the most reef safe of all the puffers I've kept. They also like to much on Nori seaweed sheets.
