Hi Gals and Guys

Brand spanking new to this hobby and loving every moment...thought i would just say hi and post pics of my new tank.

Custom made 3ft tank (148L) with built in bio filter... thus far only 2 green spotted puffers and a bristlenose pleco smimming. Gravel substrate, 4 plants and some drift wood...

Super excited on how it has progressed thus far..look forward to the progress and adding some new members

Regards

 

Hey welcome,looking good hope to see more pics

 

Welcome.

Looking good

 

Hi, and welcome.

 

Hi Puffergirl, welcome! Love the tank so far. Is this the one that Blade posted about a few days ago?
As Reedfish says, watch out for those guillotine teeth on the puffers. I used to find headless casualties floating around in the morning

 

Welcome to one of the most addictive hobbies. When the bug bites, man does it bite.....

 

Welcome Puffergirl. You might as well start planning your second tank now as this hobby is addictive.

 

Thanks guys for the heads up on joining the forum....lucky GSP are still small and still thinking about tank mates for them...been thinking some scats maybe ... and will eventually turn brackish in the long term.

Some ideas of suitable tank mates would be great..

Thanks

 

Finally got her to join us guys, yes it's the tank I built recently and posted. Now to get her all worked up for number 2!

 

Just an update on my awesome tank...did some work on it this weekend. Added some more LED's, now has 30 white and 6 blue, which looks super awesome and did my first water change and filter clean on my own. Now she is running well.


Added a bumblebee catfish into the tank with the puffers, a special one tho ....she has a deformed spine. Squiggly is her name. Hoping she finds her tube soon to settle.

Howzit Puffergirl,

Welcome to TASA, enjoy!

 

Looking good, puffers are very clever, they look all slow and friendly and then............ KAPOW!........ fish without a tail swim away.

 

Looking nice. Puffers are actually brackish water fish and do much better in it. Add some salt or read up on their natural enviroment.

She did say she was going brackish

Nice tank though

 

Yep will plan brackish in the future...maybe once i get hold of some ruby scats...
