Re: Irrubesco Puffer (Red Tailed Red Eyed)

They have arrived!!

Settling in as I type, exploring every inch of the tank. They are even eyeing me up when they are feeling brave! They are beautiful puffers the pictures on the web don't do them justice! I plan to leave them for today then try and get some snaps tomorrow.
