Thanks, Thai. I'm having trouble with that crypt spiralis in the back but other than that I'm pretty happy with it all. I just keep stuffing it with more and more plants trying to see if there is such a thing as too much! I got some blyxa japonica yesterday to try out...woot!"I think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability." -Oscar Wilde

You should totally do that! And you wouldn't have to get rid of the skrimps, we keep 20-30 RCS in here, the puffers pick off one every once in awhile but they have enough hiding places that they would never be able to knock the numbers down too far...plus I try to keep the girls well-fed!Originally posted by aquabee View PostLove it. I'm waiting on my bank account to settle after dropping 500 smackaroos on fish and lights this weekend. Next is a dwarf puffer tank! SO cute! Or maybe I'll convert my Fluval Flora (which is basically the same as an Ebi) into a dwarf puffer tank. Although I'd have to get rid of my yellow shrimp, which would suck.

I wouldn't want to keep one in a 2.5...why so small!Originally posted by ometh View PostLol feed them to the puffers. Anyways I've been wanting to set up a 2.5 pea puffer tank but I don't know where to get them :( I'm guessing fish gallery right?"I think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability." -Oscar Wilde

That's exactly what I've got! And I love it...honestly, I'm itching to buy another one, and set them side-by-side when we convert this one to shrimp, later.Originally posted by Chris.d514 View PostThis is what I am looking at getting her sometime this summer after we make our disney world trip (got to have money for the kid to spend there). http://www.amazon.com/Fluval-Nano-Sh...2692990&sr=1-6
I doubt that they would still have them by the time you guys get a tank ready, but no worries-they pop up fairly regularly here and there, you just have to be patient and keep checking. The 2 females are working out pretty good for me so far, but honestly my plan is to move them over to a 20g planted so that I can have a proper harem- 1 male to 2-3 females. Like we were saying last night, always buy the biggest tank you can afford, it will save you the hassle of having to upgrade later!Originally posted by holly.d514 View PostWhere did you buy your puffer from? I'm thinking we will get 2 females so they have company."I think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability." -Oscar Wilde

I love those picos for shrimp and snails...they're like little candy dishes for inverts.Originally posted by ometh View PostGood point. Reason being for the 2.5 is because it's just an extra tank I have lying around. I might get an Ada tank or something instead
We're re-doing a rimless 2g now for our tylos and hoping to put some sulawesi shrimp in it when it's settled in.

I hear you, my piggy bank has been a little empty lately too! Boo.Originally posted by ometh View PostHaha nice! I'm on a budget ATM and making due with what I have right now :P I might jus change my 20 planted to a planted puffer tank :)
That would be sweet, I can't wait to get a 20g to do the same...c'mon, $1 a gallon sale....!!"I think that God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability." -Oscar Wilde

Awesome. Good to know! I will keep my yellows if I decide to get some puffers!Originally posted by LooksLater View PostYou should totally do that!
