New puffer

[glolite]

Of course he/she could be penelope but I have my dwarf purrer Love him/her loads. This puffer loves bloodworms and small snails and has a big belly from lots of eating. I have cleaned out the tank twice a week and the water is A ok.
As soon as poss I will get a pic but he/she is she at the mo.

What do you mean you "cleaned out the tank twice a week and the water is A ok"?

I'm guessing vac the gravel and water change, but I have to ask, does this tank have a filter?
Please say yes!

Hi Glolite,

thats great ! since i collected the guppies from you i have got 2 dragon puffers they are brilliant ! the guppies are all doing well, great colouring! is there a possibility and were endlers? i am not sure whether its one of yours or mine cause they were all a similar size but 2 of the babies have lovely colours down their body and look very endler like ! So pleased they are beautiful !

1. Of course it has a filter!! Heater and airstone as well.

2. Yes I meant gravel vac and partial water change when I said "cleaned out"

3. Water A ok meant nitrites and ammonia nil and yes I fishless cycled the tank first (only the best for MY puffer!!!)

4. Hi Dulce, glad the gups are ok. Some of mine have amazing colours down their sides too. They were first generation blue tailed fathers and grey mums with various coloured tails. One of the mums had a beautiful purple tail but she died recently
However, I now have 3rd generation males and females so need to swap my current males for some new stock. Are endlers guppy hybrids or a result of inbreeding?

 

[dulcie]

not entirely sure !?!? they look too pretty on their bodies to be gups ! hows the DP doing ?

 

[glolite]

The DP's fine. I think he must be a 'Percy' not a Penelope as he is developing wrinkles around the eyes. He polished off half a dozen baby snails this morning. Trouble is I can't get near him with the camera, he swims off. Perhaps he'll settle then I'll post a pic.
