So reading all the threads on Dwarf Puffers made me want to keep these again. And By Chance I found 2 nice and healthy ones in A5 At the weekend after picking up my New Red Tiger Endlers.

So they ate a few Hikari Micro Pellets and then were hunting Endler Fry Last Night in the IAL Leaf Litter(which they love swimming in and Out of)

This morning an went and fished out some Tiny baby Pond Snails for them from the Barrel I grow Snails and Daphnia in.

Here are some pix from this morning eating snails.

AAAAAH! Any chance of a full tank shot? How heavily planted is the tank and the filtration etc?

They're so cute :D

It is Not Planted As Yet, As Plants are arriving Soon. So Far it is just a Rock Covered In Fissidens Fontanus and my Nana Petite on Nano Bogwood. And Plenty of Torn up Indian Almond Leaves.
Will Be Planted with Vallis, Glosso, HC, Mosses on Either Bamboo or Terracota.

Filter is an Azoo Mignon 60, But I will be added either an External Eden 501 or an Internal Canister - Going to Browse some Filters on Wednesday Night.

once I am happy that it looks right there will be FTS. :)

Very nice mate, another vote for the FTS :good:

I see you're a fan of in the night garden ;)

Will Do, Night Garden ?????????? Those were just random Names, did not realise there were characters with those names.

They have eaten more snails and bloodworm,Mozzies that a Fished out this evening.


Now they are Busy hunting in the IAL again. Flushing out Fry. :lol::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub::wub:

Yep again, this is now the 4th time keeping them. Whenever I see them I can't Help Myself.
 
The more I see of them the more I want some. But I'm not quite ready to set up another tank.

What size tank do you have them in? And are they m/f?, I'm just now learning and can't tell from the pics.
 
nice looking fish you have

Thanks

Not sure on the sexes, Tank is a 3-4 G but will be Heavily Planted and Very Over Filtered.

I love these Guys, And when i had them in a group of 20+. it was great to see them swimming around in little groups. That was however in a 400G Mixed Community Tank.
 
Added another Azoo Mignon 60 that i found in the Fish Supplies Box (did not know i had some more of these).
They have settled in Very Well and are starting to nibble on Micro Pellets.
 
These guys are for sale now, as my Thai Micro crabs arrived. I do not want to risk them being eaten
