dog faced puffer

Hi everyone, I have a 220 reef tank. I have always wanted a dog faced puffer but did not add one and went in a reef/invert direction instead. But I still want one. Lol. Ive read up on their habits and dont think it would be a good choice to add one but I just wanted to check on this forum with...

Tomorrow I'm picking up my dog faced puffer and would like some suggestions on appropriate tank mates. It's a 130dt with a 30g sump fowlr only other fish is a yellow tailed damsel which was a stow away in the live rock. I'm not concerned about him as we tried to catch him but the tank is too...

heres my new addition http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c4...y/IMG_0393.jpg

I remember reading somewhere that a dog face will not really grow in captivity, is this true?? I really really want one but I know that a full grown one needs like a 150g tank. If I get a small one what size tank will it need and is it true that it won't grow so much in captivity??

So...I'm a total pushover....we started out planning on a 100g, I let my husband talk me into a 120g, then a 150g and now he's wanting a 180g. We have the room, and have money to do the 180g...should I just say ok?? I need you guys to help me decide!!

Eddie just set up a 60 gallon tank (he has been cycling it out in his shop for a few months). Now its in our living room. He wants to make it a tank with puffers, eels, lionfish, etc. Does anyone know which fish go with which fish so they don't eat eachother? We just thought about throwing...

Hi All My new tank is almost ready for water. The LR & LS should be arriving in a week or so. It is a 150G tang, 60G sump/fuge (half of which will have a 8 - 9" DSB). I have 130lb of cured fiji rock coming along with 50lb of 'plating' live rock (can't remeber where it comes from...

I have only heard good things about Petsolutions, and I want to get a [rare] starfish from their online store--among a few other things. Right now, I have about $150 in total for my order, and $175 gets you free shipping, so if anyone wants to get something from them, please let me know...

Last night with lights out and flashlight in hand I was looking in the tank. Found a small crab that I have never seen before. Must be a hitchhiker. No camera, no picture so I'll try to describe it. Saw only 4 of its legs beige in color looked a little like hair, the body was round and dark...

Now that I have your attention.:beer: :beer: I have a bunch of xenia I need to "weed" out. Anybody want any? I want little to nothing for it. Just PM, or email me if you want some.

Cayes Aquarium pulled thru today and was able to get my long sought after Mothers Day present.. My Wife was wanting a baby Dog Faced Puffer for some time... After calling around I decided to try a LFS that I have been dealing with for about 16yrs.. They said that they would be able to get it...

I have a healthy maroon clown that was one of the first (sw) fish I ever got. its about 3 inches long, a dark orange-ish red. She's not overly mean, but constantly looks grumpy as she nestles in her bare corner of the tank (which she cleans out meticulously). I love this fish and do not want to...
