    Re: Look what Elvis did!

    You must have one huge tank! They are beatuiful fish. Just imagine a mbu full grown and puffed up! It would look like a beach ball. 8O

        For a Mbu I would go with at least 300 gallons or larger. Only because the larger they get the harder it would be to keep the water quality good. Or you may be doing some major water changes each week. Have you ever read this article: http://www.thepufferforum.com/forum/...cus/mbuforyou/. I remember reading how he had major problems with nitrates, shortly after that his puffer passed. His tank was 150 gallons. He also had other fish with the Mbu. He's a really nice guy and I'm sure if you had questions about a mbu he would be glad to answer them.  :wink: I was planing to get one, but after reading all of his post I decided not to. :(

            Truth is the cement that holds the bricks and stones of a sane and civilized society together. Remove the former and the latter will crumble.

                Those are some cool pics!!  When we got our two Figure 8 Puffers I wanted to name one Elvis but my son decided he wanted to name them.  He went with Henry and Rock LoL!!  Well he is only 5 years old  :P  Now I think they look more like a Peet and Repeat myself.

                    I don't think I could live without a puffer in the house. It's like having an underwater puppy. You know, one that I don't have to walk.
