want to get a dwarf puffer and have a question

jesslmun · May 27th, 2009

i've read that puffers are jumpers and can possibly jump out of their tank. I'm thinking about getting one and currently have a 10 gal tank that I want to put him in. It has a lighted lid but is open in the back for the filter. Will the puffer be able to jump out from there or would it be ok?

Welcome to Fishlore

I think your dwarf puffer would be very happy in a 10 gallon tank. If you are afraid of him jumping (I have never had my DP's jump) You can get a plastic craft sheet and use it to fill in the gap in the back of the your tank.
