Dwarf Puffers

[rain-]

My dwarf puffers have been a bit grumpy. I have fed them only once a day for three days and they don't like it. The boys have been a bit more aggressive than usual but still no bite marks on anyone.

I almost managed to get a picture of them all (we, 8 missing from the picture).

Damn I love those dwarf puffers!!!

Great little fish.

So how much trouble is feeding those little guys?

So how much trouble is feeding those little guys?

I usually give them frozen bloodworms twice a day and snails once a week. Their teeth don't grow as fast as the bigger species teeth, so they don't need snails as often as the larger ones. But they do love to annihilate snails

The hardest part is growing the snails =)

One of my white cloud mountain minnows wanted to say hi.

Oh, and I forgot to add. I took the picture without the flash. I think that I took about 50 pictures that had blurred images of fast moving white could mountain minnows Then this one stopped to stare at me

Rain, I don't comment often in the Pix Forum, but that's a beautiful minnow.

Thanks =)

They are adorable little fish. In my planted tank with some peat extract their colors shimmer so beatifully. And they are so active and funny. And breed like rabbits (I have about 300 babies now)

I second the FOTM nomination!

Down with the elitist cichlid conspiracy! Down with our scary, big fish overlords!

Schooling fish of the world unite!

I am getting a 500-litre tank and I won't put any big ones there. Only small, schooling fish. Maybe these ones and lots of pygmy cories and Otos.
