Bad News & Good News

Post by premo »

Hi All

Haven't been able to post for almost a year, work commitments etc etc, hope you are all well, all the best for 2009.

Bad news, my lovely Abei, Sherman, passed away 26th December, we think he swallowed something which had blocked
his gut, probably a month ago, went off his food and slowly slipped away, devastating really. A house without puffers
ain't no house at all, so my partner was determined to try and cheer me up. Despite my reluctance I cam home yesterday
to a brackish 120 litre with 3 x F8's, cute little fellas' and maintaining the tank seems straightforward, I have not had
a great deal of luck with Abei's, Issac and Sherman both only made about a year, despite constatnt attention.

Will post some pics of the F8's once they are settled,

Once again my best wishes to you and your puffs !!

Chris

Welcome back Chris!

Its good to see you, I'm so sorry to hear about Sherman though. I lost a SAP that way, he ate a beetle (box elder) who's shell apparently wasn't digestable.
