Hello, I tried to post this on a thread about the green spotted puffer but the thread was to old to reply too, so I thought would try here.
I have had a saltwater aquarium for 10+ years. It is full of mushroom coral, and several other soft corals. So when my son saw these poor little puffers and said but mom they are the cutest fish ever I agreed! My SW tank is fish free because my last 10+yr old damsel died recently and A pet store that carries sw fish is over an hour away and thought I would sell the tank rather than restock it with fish. But now look what I agreed too, "2 of the cutest fish ever!" Any way,, how long should it take me to get them acclimated so I can put them in my SW tank they were in fw? AND how low can I take my tanks salinity, with out harming the corals (mushrooms, cabbage leathers kenya trees.)? Will they be okay in a bowl with a air hose as they acclimate? Can't add them to my FW tank the frog will eat them. I really didn't think this purchase thru, but they have just as good of a chance with me as they do at Walmart. Thanks
