DP in a 5 gallon; tankmates?


Uuuummm, your puffer would love ghost shrimp….lol as a snack. Puffers are hard to find tank mates for they eat everything, even things bigger than them. I am just learning about DP’s because my friend got some. I am used to the brackish puffers, not FW ones. I assume though that they are the same when it comes to eatting habits. I have night goby’s in with my puffers. Once again brackish though. I think that if you give the DP’s enough room they will be fine with other DP’s. Of course a 5 gallon is probably too small for this. Puff’s really like to have there space. They also may fight over food. As for keeping the algea down in your tank I would find big snails, not the feeder kind. I do not know anything about snails, but I can not see a DP picking on one of those huge kinds like an Apple Snail or whatever the fresh water big snail is.
