fatpuffer Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 I have kept many puffers in my short stint in this hobby. I found the SAP are the most notorius when it comes to dentistry. I have SAP that I fed nothing but shelled items from baby crays, to snails, to small crabs and I still performed dentistry about every 6 months. It is not hard but the first time is a bit nerve racking. If you do not like the dentistry part. You can always go with carinotetraodon irrubesco or c. lorteti (gets to about 2 inches)...a nice group of c. transvancoricus (sp?) aka dwarf puffers. OR Very light brackish...Figure 8 puffers...similar in size with SAPS and very easy to take care of. Jonah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
