The Puffer Forum

Now I know you are all thinking that they will get eaten but I have 2 Ceylons that will not touch anything but frozen shell-off cockels. I am in the process of setting up a Brackish tank for them and wanted to put in some shrimps to control algea/detritus etc. Any ideas? Cheap preferably, just in case the puffers change their eating habits!

I was also going to put in 2 Orange Chromides to keep the puffers company.

Am I right in thinking that I should not increase the SG by more than .002 a week to prevent the bacteria suffering?

Cheers

Yes you are right about increasing the salinity. Ghost shrimp can be acclimated to brackish.

Thanks Tina, might give those a go.
