Description:
Brackish / .012 salinity 80 gallons. Monos, green spotted puffers, fiddler crabs, ghost shrimp, ( for live food, that are breeding) Guppies, 1 female beta, 1 platty substrate small aquarium rock to large rock. ( makes Great hiding spots ). 2 years growing purple algae the 1 platty came in a bag of feeder guppies and is now as large as the mollies. ( I tryed adding 3 more all died )So I stay away from them. I have tryed lots of different fish to acclimate. I would like over a 3-6 months to raise the salt level to .024
Advice:
I have tried many different kinds of fish and crustaceans. I have a 3 year brackish tank that I increase salinity monthly. I can answer the pro and cons of a brackish tank I also know about green spotted puffers in a community tank.

Mollies, Green spotted puffers, Monos, Fiddler crabs, Ghost shrimp, Platty, Bata female
