I introduced 2 more to my group of 5 Both were accepted but the male from the new pair kept trying to mate with the female to the point where she’s no longer part of the group and lives alone now Ime Once a male feels like mating he will go crazy on either sex What you saw is mating...

That’s great News

You need live foods Snails,crayfish, crabs, earthworms, black worms something to entice it Frozen food is literally for our convenience not the fish Personally won’t try live shrimp too fast especially right now in it’s weakened condition I also would have tried getting it to eat live...

18” in a 55 gallon? What was it in before if that is giving it more room?

Two is a bad idea Tank mates another bad idea At 1 inch they’re sort of prone to prolapse because often enough in capativity people over feed them. Only tank mates I’ve seen do really well with them are fish too small for them to bother chasing like neon tetras Pbass imo too fast too...

Very nice pattern Agreed about mts And puffers For mbu you should try to get a group of Marisa cornuarietis/giant ramhorn related to Apple snails Easier to breed, produce in huge numbers Eggs are laid underwater so no incubation period like with Apple/mystery snail/Pomacea diffusa

Pomacea diffusa Just doing it’s job cleaning up the dead or dying

The babies look like bn’s

Thread needs some love

I agree probably not but it’s not impossible Took me over a year of training to get my hairy to eat pellets Starving imo isn’t a good way to do this

In all the years I’ve been keeping puffers only one ate pellets it was a Tetradon baileyi Chances are yours will not eat pellets You can feed frozen foods like krill, filet, some frozen uncooked shrimp The reason for feeding clam ina half shell is to maintain its teeth This does not have to...

I have them in a standard 65 gallon I’m moving them to a standard 90 gallon this week because they have grown a good amount and the male needs more space

Hey Really sorry I somehow overlooked this post I think a group is amazing Watching them interact all day together They even sleep together I just added two more yesterday and they were accepted by the other 5 right away Personally feel after watching mine they are meant to be in groups

I’d get them That’s what I like about puffers lol
