spotted puffer

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
well, as they get bigger they may (or probably will) get very aggressive and territorial. so, choosing tankmates can be very difficult. plus, the increasing salinity level would make it difficult finding something that would would not outgrow a 55 and be able to handle the increasing salinity. if you want something just as a dither, you could try some mollies. they could handle the increasing salinity but there's a really good chance they may get eaten. if they can survive long enough to start breeding though maybe the puffs will only eat the fry and not the parents. then you'd have a steady food source for them as well. :) if I was going to try anything with them it would probably be mollies. :thumbsup:
 
mollies it is
damn my wife is going to kill me thats what she wanted for dithers and i thought they wouldn't last she wanted a sunburst molly and i said no
she may now punch me in the face
lol
 
I work at a LFS.Our spotted puffers are fully marine.They are in with an emperor snapper and they don't touch him.Our puffers range in size from 2inches to 6inches.We also have 2 monos that are fully marined.They are 5inches long and almost 4inches tall.They can go with puffers.
 
in that case I really hope for your sake that the puffs don't eat them. no telling what she'd do to you if she got the mollies she wanted and your puffers ate them. :ROFL: :ROFL: :ROFL:
 
i will just by alot of them and replace them as they disappear they are cheap enough and if i have a bunch of them she won't miss a couple a week
lol

I loved these as a F8/GSP tankmate. The puffers ignored them, and they are a completely awesome brackish/marine predator.
