FishBen Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 i soooo want to get some now :bounce: :bounce: would a tank this size be fine for two http://www.trademe.co.nz/Home-living/Pe ... 212192.htm thanks More than enough for 2 dwarf puffers Just make sure you get some blood worms for them, as they won't eat normal flake food (usually).

breakaway Posted September 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 I had 3 in my AR380 heavily planted (34L) tank, and they were fine. I now have 6 in my 200L tank and its getting a bit crowded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nativelover Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 ok cool i want some so bad but would they be alright for a begginer? :bounce: :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatito Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 You'll never guess who's living happily with these guys now..... (drumroll)... 12 tiger barbs Beating the odds yet again, the puffers have started eating the flaked food that i give the tiger barbs before i drop the bloodworms in. Have never shown any interest in flake before. Must be the competition - i swear the puffers and barbs think they're all one big group. Main diet still bloodworms, but wont hurt them to eat a it of flake on the side ok cool i want some so bad but would they be alright for a begginer? :bounce: :bounce: I think they would be fine so long as the tank is well-established and you do your research in regards to feeding and behaviour. Also make sure you test your waste levels regularly in case your water changes aren't frequent enough (they're very messy), so if you don't know how to do this, best to learn first. If your tank is brand new I would start with other fish before moving on to the dwarf puffers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nativelover Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 cool the tank is brand new so it only has neons and algae eaters in atm but after a while will convert it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
