Yesterday I got a shipment of a long awaited fish for me: 3 Colomesus asselus, Amazon puffers.
All 3 arrived very healthy and in great, round condition at about 1 inch each. Already glass surfing (which I suppose is inescapable for these guys), though two have calmed down at this point.
Names are simple: Huey (the smart ne), Dewey (the crazy one), and Louie (the lazy one)
They are being held in quarantine for a while just to make sure everyone is healthy. I am currently treating prazi pro just because you can never be too sure.
I would try to get them some hex shield, but puffers and pellets don’t go well. I tried feeding bloodworms yesterday, one definitely ate, one may have, and I didn’t see the third touch anything. Hopefully tomorrow they have more of an appetite.
Once out of quarantine they will bring some much needed life to a 36 gallon bow front planted tank, along with an EBA and some loaches. I hope to also add a peacock eel and some tetras. I’ll move the loaches if they get too mean.
Enough talking, heres some pictures:
