How old is he? I love their personalities... Ive become friends with a giant puffer fish at our aquarium, everytime he sees me he comes right up to the glass! Its adorable, but its been a few years since ive been able to get out to that aquarium cause of the pandemic so Idk how he's doing

I've had him for about a year or so. Yeah, they've very gentle animals! Very personable, very cute!

In the past I've kept reefs and a macro tank or two, but lately I've been drifting towards FOWLRs. Mainly just because I'm living in an apartment where I can't hook an RODI unit up, and buying jugs of distilled was getting expensive, even on my pico tanks.

I read through a bit of your reef thread, and it looks awesome! I'm strongly considering picking up a Lifegard 4 gallon tank and setting it up with a clown goby and some softies on my desk. Yellow Clown Gobies are just so, so fun! I may go to a store today and look at tanks, lol!

Thanks!

I would try to aim for a 10G+ for a yellow clown goby. Even though they are small, they still need some room for exploration.

Plus, the larger the tank, the easier the parameters are to keep stable.

Ah, not one for keeping fish in picos, I see! We'll have to agree to disagree on that one, but to each their own!

Bigger tanks are definitely more stable! Just got back from the LFS. New thread to come.

Not a big fan of picos, but to eat his own. I'll keep my eye out for the thread!

I'd love to have a Stars and Stripes Puffer - or, space permitting, a Fahaka, Mbu or Mapa. Or all three.

I'm a bit puffer crazy.
