I am interested in keeping my first puffer. I have a 30 gallon tank that I am going to start setting up. Any suggestions on what kind of puffer and what kind of set up for the tank?
30 gallon puffer
- Thread starter sstromerson
- Start date
Both are more lurker species of puffers, although my Congo, (T.Miurus) tends to be quite active and very rarely buries himself unless the lights go off or he's attempting to hunt...
As for the Suvatti, same thing, they are known to bury themselves, although each puffer has its own personality and may or may not bury themselves...
But with that being said, the do prefer a substrate bottom (with no sharp edges) so that if they decide to do so they can bury themselves without getting hurt...
Any way for pictures and more info check out these two links:

Hey sstromerson, I see I got you thinkin of a puff!
My vote still goes for Congo!
Good set-up would definintely require sandy substrate for the congo to burry itself if it wants, a cave or two, maybe a piece of drift wood and some plants should do the trick!
Whether you get a congo on not, good luck
