The Puffer Forum

Hello everyone. I'm from Washington State and new to Puffer fish. I just got my tank setup and entroduced two Green Spotted Puffers to it. Ten Gallon Brackish tank with sand bottom and a few Dwarf Hairgrass Plants. I also have a 55,two 25, and one ten gallon freshwater Tank as well. I have been keeping and raising fish for about twenty years now, but this is my first brackish water tank.

I guess we can start with saying that that 10g tank is not even sufficient for 1 GSP let alone 2. A single GSP requires about 30g of water.

I know it is only temp tank

Hi if you'r ever around the Seattle area, come attend one of the Greater Seattle Aquarium Society meetings. I try to attend if there are any puffer chats. Otherwise this forum is where you'll get the best advice in the world.

10g is barely large enough for a single juvie GSP:

How was this tank "just set up" & cycled so quickly?
Please move them to the 55g, ASAP!
