Taps for a special fish.

Thanks for sharing his amazing history.

Will there be consideration for another Fahaka some day in the future ?

That's a good looking fish with a well thought out home.

Really nice pictures, thanks for sharing.

This big fellow is so excited by the prospect of a snail snack that he almost attempts to swim THROUGH the tank's front glass
to get at the juicy treat. Yummy. CRUNCH - CHOMP - CRUNCH - CRUNCH.....

Agreed. ( This is not my aquarium.)

I posted this guy's video as a warning.

Can you provide better images of the tail area ?

That's a very nice looking porky.

Crunching mussels obviously agrees with him.

Here is a helpful "how to" modify a pipette as a blood-worm feeder - video. 2:29 a51b9rpmmns materials list: "Materials (from Amazon.com): Pipettes - Karter Scientific 206H3 3ml Graduated Transfer Pipette, Cap 7ml, 1/2ml Grads, 155mm (Pack of 100) Suction cups (not exact but something...

This one will make you feel good. A concerned swimmer cuts a netted Porky free from the mesh using a piece
of glass as a knife. Obviously exhausted, our freed Porcupine appears to be helped and pushed along into
deeper water by another concerned puffer. Neat !

The vendor's construction, packing, and shipping attention to detail are all quite impressive.

A really cool post. Thanks for sharing this with everybody.

That's a worm.

I don't know who wrote this, but it's pretty good.

Okay I just saw this thread... wtf? http://cdn.meme.am/instances/500x/13793384.jpg I'm being half serious, with a touch of aquarium humor. Almost every captive MBU on the planet earth is probably in a tank that's "too small". That being said, every MBU owner plans to "address the pro...

That's one really nice-looking Congo, vince106. I'll agree with the previous posters on watching for any possible infection. How long has the "spot" been visible ? Did it perhaps start after a rowdy feeding ? Any chance this is a slice wound from a ticked-off prey item ( crayfish, crab, et...

This will do for the 2 day old MBU I have on order.

( Don't worry, it's only temporary. )

Totally cool. Please do try to get us a brief video snip of your finned friend doing the squeak. I'm chuckling just thinking about squeaking puffers and all of the really bad jokes and puns that will no doubt emerge. https://img0.etsystatic.com/140/0/6508741/il_214x170.853231438_2h8w.jpg
