Minnnt's South American Puffer Tank

[minnnt]

Ph is 6.8 in the tank and about 14 GH, why do you ask liz?

Cant wait for the updated pics, I think I might get a few puffers for my 100litre, just need to get a filter and find a new home for the Betta.

Doubt they'll breed, I had GSP's that flirted so done everything to get them to breed and nothing, puffers are notoriously hard to breed.

 

[minnnt]

Yeah they're great, but consider them first, I sometimes wish I had just gone with neons for ultimate colour and ease of stocking.

Anyone have any thoughts on trying a bn with the puffers? The oto's are fine so would think a bn would be, but I'm a little hesitant to try.

Ok, here is the updated pics. I think i may have got a little carried away.

ooooh check you out! Ian been giving you photography lessons, or have your lightbulbs blown ?

Looking ace though.

It's called being tight and getting a cheap low watt tube Thanks anyway matey!

Steveo, i doubt they will breed either, but it would be nice for sure!

lol @ Stu!

looking nice mate...it's a pity you didn't chuck a large shoal of something in there. Top notch scape anyway.

They're cool mate, I love puffers. Nice layout too looks really natural.

 

[minnnt]

Thanks alot! Sometimes wish I had gone with 12 neons, but I didn't so I'm screwed. Lol.

Looks awesome, I love the natural look at you got it spot on :0)

If you want a shoal of neons that badly send me the puffers and I will buy you a nice shoal of neons :0) you know you want to

 

[ian]

that sounds like a deal to me!

I reckon a shoal of neons would be ace in that tank Minnnnnnnt.

3 n's.

Too cold to post and my 3yr old who I am very scared of would kill me!

 

[kyleb2003]

worth it to try these different kind of fish though. I've had a pygmy and figure 8 before and enjoyed keeping both.

your tank looks amazing mate and the puffers will be sound in there as they have character and interest factor in spades
