Cycling

Whatever you do, make sure that your tank is cycled before adding Dwarf Puffers to it!  They will not survive the cycling process and you need to have everything balanced out before adding them.  There are a few methods for cycling your tank:

 

  • Bio-Spira - This is by far the fastest and easiest way to cycle an aquarium.  This stuff is just incredible!  Check around your area for it or order it here.

  • Fishless Cycling - This is also an effective method, it just takes much longer.  Two great articles on fishless cycling can be found here and here.
