Dwarf Puffer Tank

[corrosive]

Hopefully should be getting my Puffers tomorrow
24" x 8" x 8" - Fluval 2+ Filter

I think it looks alright, just needs a bit of tidying up and the plants need to establish themselves.

Very nice well done. My dp tank will be better though lol.

Yep no doubt but this was built all done on purely student budget £0.00 oh actually, i did pay about £2.20 for the sand and used about 50P worth.

Can only get photos of the alpha female at the moment, all others came out blurry.
Theyre both gorgeous fish, needed a good feed though. They were well under weight at the fish shop. They were quarentined because of being new arrivals but i managed to grab them out, give them a better chance IMO.

how cute i think its time i did a dp set-up

 

[RadaR]

What a cool set up you have there

 

[jayjay]

They are very healthy, looks great. Pretty sure they are what I want for my 8g now,

Nice set up....your puffers will love you
On a side note..I have found that most of the time that I see dwarf puffers in stores the look malnourished, but as long as they are basically healthy should become little piggies for you in no time!

Great setup for great fish. Good job.

wow, now that's freaky.

I have the exact same tank .... well so far as it's the same dimensions anyway

I was about to start the setting up tomorrow ... with the main aim being the housing of a couple of Dwarf Puffers!!

I've bought a fluval 1+ filter (which I'll be collecting today) and I have also to pick up some sand and plants also.

Can I ask what plants you are using?

I don't think I'll be able to compete with the cheapness of your set up tho ... so far the tank has cost me 85 euro. The tank was 60 (got a filter with it, but it's not great ... I might run it alongside the fluval tho) and the fluval was 25. Plus I'll have to buy sand, wood, rocks and plants ... probably set me back another 40 euro easily.

Do you have any lights in your tank? ... I was hoping to have it as a natural lit tank ... with maybe just a basic table lamp over it.

Very nice tank. I really like the dwarf puffers and thinking about getting them back again.
