    Hi, all! I'm new here as I just made an account, but I've been creeping for quite some time since starting to keep marine fish 8 years ago. Thank you all for everything I've learned! This may not be exactly the correct forum to post this, but I figured if anyone knows if this is breeding...

    Super Picky Valentini

    I am struggling trying to provide a varied diet for my valentini puffer. He doesn't touch flake or pellets. He eats 2-3 mysis/krill TOPS and after that will only accept brine.
