Dwarf puffer and a 10g

[MommyJulia]

I have 1 little dwarf puffer in a 10g tank. I am wondering if she is lonely. What do you guys think? should i get a tank mate or let her be alone in there? and if so what tank mate would be good. it's only a 10g and i am probably not gonna upgrade this one.

Thanks in advance

no theyre too aggressive. if you had a 55g tank you could get two, but if you have a 55g tank for dwarf puffers youre crazy

I've seen people with a couple of dwarfs in a 10g as long as its got plenty of cover.

ok cool, thanks

yeah, put some cover in there and you should be good.

It's very heavily planted in the 10g. And lots of hiding places. I was just thinking maybe she was lonely.

it would be a risk... it might work... or she may have already claimed the whole tank as "hers"..

You could get two more...that way theres a more complex hierarchy...or just put some bumblebee gobies in there!

bumblebee gobies thats a good idea thanks!

yeah she might have claimed it already, hehe. I was just thinking maybe she was lonely. thanks guys!
