Five of my 6 DPs - The Borg
The 6th one is a big (big for a DP anyway) male with lots of flourescent metalic blue flecks -- Mr. Grumpy Gills because he's the one who spends the most time chasing the others away from his territory (the base of an Amazon Sword.)
My SAP that died of ich was named "FaTiG Quixote Lord Buzz". FaTiG for "Face to glass" Quixote because he always seemed to be charging something that wasn't there and Lord Buzz because he was like a little bumble bee. Enjoy that great Amazon River in the sky . . . .
My Betta is bright blue: Mr. Elvis Saphire.
My 2 guppies are creatively named: Red & Blue

Nice names for the shrimp, lol.
Like few here I don't name my fish. Never have...well maybe once when I was like 4 or something.
On another topic I wonder if there is a vegitarian puffer out there? (to be like me ) But I highly doubt it. My parents think I'm crazy to give up meat. I hate handling dead shimp etc because I am a true nature fanatic, but hey, when puffers gotta eat they gotta eat. Not like they can tell me "FEED ME VEGGIES!"
If only there were a puffer to eat stupid people in my school, then the world would be a better place:twisted: ...lol, just kidding.

There is a bit on a spectrum on direct veggie intake by puffers, roughly highest in SW, lower in BW, rare in FW. None of them are predominatly herbivores though - they are built as primarily predators of shelled creatures who may be largely filter feeders or scavengers/herbivores. The teeth and gut call for high-protein intake in a hard crust. Veggie diest are not the best path by a wide margin.

My 2 yrs old T. suvatti is named Suvat. It sounds like a rarely used Turkish name Suat. He is in a 160 lt 5* aquarium. Once upon a time, I had showed his photos on the best puffer forum on the world (I forgot the name. What was it? Pufferhome something mm? ).
By the way, it is really very splendid thing to be with puffer funs again.
