Dwarf Puffer preporation. Some Q's

[LadyMinion]

Now now Ladyminion! at least my dragon puffy isnt that evil..... hopefully

Nah, they're not evil, just opportunists. When we got Smaug, we removed the community fish to the bigger tank but didn't manage to catch a couple of tetras. The next morning we found one with his abdomen ripped out in the shape of a puffer beak and the other still alive but with his entire back half missing.

Smaug was sitting in his corner looking as if butter wouldn't melt.....

Currently the dragons share their tank with a dwarf snakehead. He is a lot bigger than them, but the first couple of days they were together we discovered some bite marks to his caudal fin. He stays away from them now.

Ottos get bigger than Dps

Sorry to hijack the thread


??? I've adopted my friends otos who are around 3 years old and are maybe an inch an a half at the most and by far these fish are not shunted.
How big are otos suppose to grow right now they're the same sizes as the DP and I don't think they plan on a growth spurt anytime soon

I orderd 6 dwarf puffers, 2 males and 4 females. They will be here on tuesday. I can''t wait .

If I can ask, where did you order them through? I can't find any dwarf puffers around here. I've seen figure 8's and green spotted puffers -- both kept in freshwater!! (Grr.) but no TRUE dwarf puffers.

I orderd them from a supplyer who got them from Aquarium fish.net this website sells loads of cool fish.

I saw an otto at a pet store >>>>>>>>>>>> big The bigger that tank, the more they grow. Most people keep them in 10g and other small tanks, and while they don't get stunted, they don't get jumbo either. I could be wrong though

Ah, you're American. Possibly not familiar with that phrase then.

I can't really explain it on here...
