omg, I feel so bad for you, I had a green spotted puffer for a month and a half, she was a sweetheart and also my first green spotted pufferfish, so I'm not being too hadrd on myself but I am still very upset.I just didn't know how to take care of them properly, you know.

Green spotted need brackish water when they grow up, i think all puffers are pretty hard to look after. They are amazing fish though, so worth all the water changes and buying enough food to feed a small child. good luck if you get another one.

How big is this tank? I've been thinking of getting a Mbu or Fahaka puffer for a 1044 Litre tank i'm getting made.

It's sad geoffery died :(

[MBUMaster]

my tank is about the same size, had to get one specially made, so it was wide enough for him, it was 75 cm wide, as he needs a lot of turning space. think your tank would be plenty big enough for Fahaka, they dont get as big, but a full grown MBU really needs something much bigger to be proper happy. hope this helps. Would not put a Fahaka with anything else though, they are nuts!!

this is an honest question, so he didn't eat the other fish, I always hear freshwater puffers are realy agressiv.

sorry you lost him

[MBUMaster]

Hello, MBUs can be really agressive, geoffery was in a tank with other fish when he was about three inches long, there were a few casualties along the way, but very few. Most fish could swim right by his mouth when he was eating and he would still not go for them. I think it depends on the personality of the fish, as geoffery had an awesome personality. Thanks for your comment.

[MrDdddd3ify]

Whats your water like? How can you keep discus and bolivian rams healthy with congos syno's and mbu? Is it mostly hard or mostly soft?

[Okiimiru]

Why do you have small fish in the tank with that puffer? Doesn't it eat them?
