i have a brackish tank with puffers...?

Question

is there something i could put in the tank with my puffers that would be fun and cool and add something nice to the tank (because it looks so empty) that would be ok with the puffers. I have spotted puffer and figure eight puffers all small ones. Also as we all know they are messy eaters is tehres oemthing i could put in the tank to help.

I know they eat snails or atleast some times but is there a snail that reproduces fast and in great numbers?

Answer 1

First the snails. Go to any good pet shop that sells plants and they will give you snails that come in withthe plants. The reproduce like wildfire and the store will be happy to get rid of them.

Second, as far as tankmates, that depends on the size of the tank. Anything from mollies to scats to archerfish.

Here's alink that can help you alot in finding a good tank mate for your fish and tank size.
