I have several FW Puffers, they are only pest to other fish, not really overly predatory. I still love em' though!

LOL i am getting some for my two ten gallon tanks I have lying around.This tank is only 6.6 us gallons, a lot of the fish that were recommended get to large for that. I suggest you go with some pea puffers. They'll demolish pond snails and blood worms.

My dwarf puffers do tear some blood worms up! They eat them like spaghetti noodle, slurping them down from one end to the other LOL. Yeah with only 6 gallons.....you are gonna need a bigger tank for exodons. maybe a 20 long would be good to start!
those rules are completely useless and should NOT be followed. i love Exodons, theyre a bunch of little pitbulls. if you've ever seen how they swim you'd know they are too big for a tank that size. I wouldnt do it. they are very active fishKurtH;4330594;4330594 said:But in aquariums Exodons grow to usually 4 inch which is 10.2 cm and the last site I looked at says 1 cm of fish per 1 litre of water so 25 litres is 25 cm of fish which = 2 Exodons
It has been debated using that rule does not apply the the actual needs that a fish may require not to be stressed and die. I would just hold the fort down till you get a bigger tank. Having only one or two Exos will not be that thrilling anyway, it would be much better with 10-15.KurtH;4330594; said:But in aquariums Exodons grow to usually 4 inch which is 10.2 cm and the last site I looked at says 1 cm of fish per 1 litre of water so 25 litres is 25 cm of fish which = 2 Exodons
