Do they need pristine conditions? I'm SERIOUSLY considering to start keepin puffers in the sump.

Do they need sunlight ar? If choy choy choy die, will kill the rest of my fishes?

(I have bought the chem la.. but if can put more fish, why not right...)

No worries to join here , me also keen to keep few and wish to learn more.

Kept Mbu in pond before but died after sometime for no reason . Anyone here can advise best condition to keep them? But they still need to do their daily duty if under my care . ( ie eat up my garden snails).

Can comm them ?

Nowadays ,where got bigger ones, saw some at sea view only 3" size.

TIA

Simon

Puffer demand for good water condition is high and get infected by internal parasite easily.
