The Puffer Forum

I finally got a pea puffer I set up a 5g fulval chi tank for him and quickly found the filter and light it comes with sucks. So I ordered a new light off ebay and bought an aquaclear 20 filter.

More pics, his tank and him

Nice aquascaping!

Thanks I wanted a natural look

That looks great!

I just got 4 pea puffers too and I was wondering what you feed your little guy? (am I allowed to ask that on this thread or do I have to start a new one? Sorry still learning the ins and outs of the forum)

You can always ask a poster a question about their fish.

Thanks and cool that you have some too. Also feel free to ask any questions about the fish or set up I feed Hikari Bio Pure frozen mysis. The hakari bio Pure brand is a smaller mysis and seems easier for him to eat. I have long metal tweezers and I pick up a single piece of mysis (shrimp) and he grabs it from the tweezers and eats it. He ate one piece yesterday, I offered him 2 but he only ate one. He let the other one sink to the bottom. After 10mins he still hadn't ate it so I used the tweezers to pluck it out of the tank so it wouldn't rot and polute the tank from him not eating it.

The Bio Pure mysis is similar in size to brine shrimp but has nutritional value whereas brine shrimp doesn't.
