create an account on a photo hosting site like photobucket.com and the picture will automatically get resized when you upload them. Then post the link here so we can see.

Yup, T. fluviatilis for sure. His tummy looked a bit dark in the pictures. Was he stressed out by the camera? Our 2 don't like cameras at all.

He goes from white to black or mottled very wuickley and for no apparent reason, as ive said in another thread, water paramatres are fine, salinity is about 1.003.

Someone said that sometimes you just get a puffer that changes colour.

They change depending on there mood and water conditions. It could be that he is still settling.
