DP all at once in the tank?

[a1wonder]

I was wondering what is the easities way to introduce DP into a 10 gallon tank. I was thinking of getting three of them and was wondering if I should get them all at once and release them at the same time or gradually add a new puffer every two weeks (the tank is already cycled as soon as the tropicals are out the puffers are in).

All three at once so the first one doesn't establish a territory and kill the others

Good advice.

Yes, similar to your problem, I will only be putting my one GSP in a bigger 20 gallon tank when I get a second.

If the tanks if fully cycled then there is no reason why you can't put all the fish in at once. If you were to introduce the fish in stages you'd probably have to rearrange the tank to stop any terratory disputes. Also the bacteria in you tank multiplies at a level enough to sustain the fish you have in there (within reason), if you put the fish in too slowly the bacteria will actually die off to sustain that fish, when you add more fish you then get a mini cycle.

Thanks for your adivce I plan on putting DP in the tank the day that I move the last of my fish into the 33 gal tank.
