The Puffer Forum

He's still a very handsome guy.

Is it the lighting that brings out his colors? Yellow = ~3000k in the light spectrum

The photos were taken with a normal whitebalance. The water is a bit yellow because of the wood in the tank so that might give the idea its different. But thats really his colouring

And as you can see he has been on a little diet and looks a little more flat at his belly

Wow pic 4 is immense

Beautiful, I've never seen one pass 14" although it's said they can. Likely not in captivity would be my guess. Awesome fish.

Growin and lookin good

Yoda says Hi all!

He don't go after the little fish in the tank?

to quote RTR

"Fahakas do not have tankmates, they may have swimming food reserves"

His tail is SO PRETTY! He's gorgeous!

Been over a year since the last update. So here's a new vid of Yoda. Still big, strong and healthy. And almost 5 years old now

Never before has a puffer staring at his own reflection and just doing his thing built so much suspense, ahahah.

What a gorgeous beast he is~! Thanks for sharing!

We can see the reflection, he cannot. Trust me I did some wierd experiments, it hurt! Great looking puff you have

Really????? I never realized. Interesting!

...what kind of experiment did you do to yourself that it hurt, bertie, lol?

The initial test I put my head in a bag ( do not try at home kids!) and it stuck to my face/ eyeballs lol
