Hey all! I've been working on setting up a five gallon hex tank which can be found here:
New DP tank!
I had every intention of having a single
dwarf puffer and maybe an oto cat for algae. Since starting this endeavor, I can't stop thinking about pygmy cories and harlequin espeis though. At this point, I'm open for ANY suggestions (no betas, sorry). It's a low-light, heavily planted, 5 gallon with a very fine substrate. I perform water changes religiously, so it's very clean. At the moment it only houses one huge amano shrimp and a bunch of red ramshorn snails.
I'm really leaning on:
1 dwarf puffer (and 1-2 oto if they get along)
-or-
3 pygmy cories and 3 harlequin espeis
Please give me any suggestions you have...
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I don't have personal experience with Puffers but the above link may help you to decide if you haven't already seen it. Best of luck and I'm sure you'll get more responses. I'm sure PinkFloydPuffer will see this and respond as well.
