My Figure 8 (that I got after the first post in this thread) is a beast. They had a tank at the store with 2 small green spotted, one bigger green spotted with a lot of fin injuries, and a huge (maybe full grown) figure 8. I think he took some hints from the green ones, cause he likes to kill. I got 2 feeder minnows to see if he would like them, and before I could even get the net out of the tank from putting the minnow in, all I could see was a tail sticking out of my puffers mouth, and I could hear like, crunching. So I put the other minnow in, puffer waited about 3 seconds, than grabbed it behind the neck and sucked him into his mouth and crunched away. I dont know how much I should be feeding this thing, but he seems to have quite the appitite. I usually feed him about 15 brine shrimp (very small) twice a day.
A few questions...
Bumble bee gobies (one or 2), will they get destroyed, or can they live in harmony?
And, my fig8 is about 2.5 inches long, is there a chance hes just big, or did I buy an older fish? is he going to get bigger?
