I also added new decorations and some new plants but someone stole my batteries from my digital camera so I can't take anymore pictures until I can get some batteries. 
Aw thanks hehe. Well his belly usually fills up nicely after feeding time, but he's always a little on the pudgy side. Is there such a thing as overfeeding with a puffer? I feed him frozen food everyday.Erised said:Lovely fish you've got ... and nice tanks too!
About the dwarf puffer, is it like that all the time, or only after feeding? If it's simply a couple of hours after feeding, then it's absolutely nothing to worry about. If it's 24/7, I'd keep a close eye on it. My puffers are super active, and specially my female seems to never keep a belly on her and is uber skinny again within 2 hours after feeding.
SirMinions puffers however, seem to have a nice healthy belly on them at all times.
So I guess it might depend on the puffer as well. Keep an eye on it, and wait for someone else to come up with a better answer
It couldnt hurt to have a couple of none feeding days. I usually skip wednesday and saturday on my puffers. However, there's absolutely nothing to worry about if he/she is only that big after feeding. I'm quite sure it's just a normal happy and well fed puffer
They sure are smart little things aren't they? I can't believe how well he is eating from my medicine dropper now.Erised said:Yes, there is
Before, he was so thin and wouldn't touch anything I would give to him. Now he is "hunting" any frozen food I put into is tank. I think the air stone helps out a bit and makes his food move so he thinks it is alive. 
Firstly, because I only have a camera on my phone so they haven't come out that good and secondly because compared with all the pictures I've seen my tank looks rubbish!!!
I'm glad you like my tank. Most of it is decorated by second-hand garage sale items haha. My mom always finds aquarium stuff at garage sales or thrift stores and buys every single piece they have!Clareg said:You have a fantastic looking tank. I was going to post some pictures of my tank but have decided against it
Never mind, I'll keep working on it, and hopefully my tank will look as fantastic as yours!

The heavily planted tanks are mostly for when you've got more than 1 dp. This will give them more chances of getting away from the other quickly. When you only have 1 dwarf puffer, it shouldnt matter much Puffers do often manage to kill shrimp at least twice their size!! Other dwarfs however, actually get along with them *shrug* ... tank mates or food? Who knows!
Well most of my shrimp in there are carrying eggs, but the eggs are brown. I thought they were supposed to be pink? Does this mean they're dead?Erised said:I do think that will be plenty for him
If he does mind, you'll notice. He'll lose some colours or start hiding at all times ... I think he's doing great in there though!
Not sure how long the ghost shrimp will last, just dont get too attached to them
I'm getting really attached to him. He's so fun to watch. He usually just swims up to the ghost shrimp and then the shrimp will check him out in return and the DP will get scared and swim away haha. But the shrimp are only 10 cents each so if he manages to eat one, I won't be too sad.
