I'm so upset!!..My little DP's killed my Nerite snail. Little 's
I was giving them plenty to eat including pond snails... but noooooo they just wanted more. RIP nerite snail. Sooo sorry I put you in that tank, poor guy. They left him alone for like a week, I really thought all was good.

you can never be too sure with puffers i guess.

That stinks. How big was the nerite? I think that PFP's have been safe with her GSP's...

Lucy

I'm really sorry about your snail

CHoffman

He was pretty good size..I can't believe they killed him. Pink was having pretty good luck with hers so that's why I got mine, But she recently noticed "bites" out of his shell and thought maybe it was the puffers..lol..They are just toooo onry.

Wow, that's crazy! I'm sorry they ate yours. I really thought that they wouldn't. Mine are still crusin' along just fine. Maybe a few bits missing around the edges of their bodies, but it doesn't seem to phase them... I mean they seem like they're made out of jelly anyways, lol.

Puffers a mean little buggers. If they weren't so cool they would have been replaced in the aquarium world already.

pinkfloydpuffer

But.... but..........

CHoffman

I would have to disagree..They are mean but being replaced..Not a chance..lol...
Allot of fish are aggressive you just have to stock accordingly. There is a HUGE market for cichlids and they are aggressive little buggers too....But you are right about them being cool....You just have to sacrifice stocking when you choose to have aggressive fish.

pinkfloydpuffer

I agree... there are much more aggressive fish then dwarf puffers being kept commonly.

CHoffman

Ok...The nerite is alive...alive....I say!!!

LOL

I guess he was just a really good faker..lol..Anway now he's safe and sound in with the cories..lol..

shih-tzu mom

Choffman; I am so happy your snail was alive-i have 1-nirite snail and he fakes it alot. One morning i thought he was a goner-but the cat came back-he was faking it.spo happy for you and please don't put him with the puff's-you just never know with puff's.Look at poor little crab of Pink's they got him after awhile. bella

pinkfloydpuffer

Haha! I told you they were tough little buggers!
