Where to buy Dwarf Puffers?

**rekles75** · 04-22-2008, 01:12 AM

I live in the Ellenwood area near Henry Co. and I am looking for Dwarf Puffers. Does anybody know of a good place to buy them from. I dont really want to buy them online even with next day shipping, as I dont want them to be too stressed when they arrive. I have read posts on here that say that Petsmart sells them, But all of the PS I go to say they have stopped selling them a while ago.

If any here can help, It would be much appreciated. Thanks.

What is nd, an ordering system? Yes I know they are small, I have a 4 gal. that I set up for 1. I have a snail problem in 55gal and 10 gal. and I thought it would look good on my home office desk. So I thought since the snails are breeding like crazy I already have enough for it to eat.

I think nd is a truncated and.

I would call around first and see if you can find anyone that has them. I have seen them at petsmart before, but you know how that goes.

What part of town are you in?

I live in Ellenwood by the Henry, Dekalb and Clayton Co lines. I have called a few places but I also wanted to see what kind of reputation the stores may have. Plus they are all in Marietta or further out, thats like an hour away. Petsmart said they stopped selling them because people were bringing them back after they found out how aggressive they were.

I think it might depend on the petsmart. I saw them in a petsmart about 2 months ago.

The stores up towards marietta are the ones that I know, but I haven't seen them cary dwarfs. Most fish stores will order fish for you though if they don't cary them in inventory.

If you have a petland close to you, you might want to give them a call. The one close to me in Kennesaw is pretty decent, and they told me I could have them order just about anything. For a dwarf or two, it would be worth their higher than average costs.
