Re: What's your puffer's name?
I used the descriptions in the Library article on sexing DPs.
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

I have named my new otocinclus catfish Thomasina and Septimus, after the main characters in my favorite play (Arcadia).

Re: What's your puffer's name?
This is Hatori
he is very prying and snoopy
. He is always the first how find the snails or come out when i am in front of the tank. He like it to play with the bubbles in the water and is very often surfing in streaming of the pump.

This is Caligula
Very shy, afraid
and relay quick in panic
. Every change makes him nervous
and very often sick. Looks always first what Hatori is doing, if he survive than he do the same ?!?

he is very prying and snoopy

This is Caligula

Re: What's your puffer's name?
So, has anyone seen "I, Claudius"? Great series. Awesome and totally creepy Caligula.

Re: What's your puffer's name?
Caligula is only his name, his character is definitely not the same like Caligula from the Roman Empire.
But i like him, and in the last half year he goes more and more a little bit brave. Not very much but he trust more in his small habitat.
The picture of both a typical. Hatori swims always to close to the camera and Caligula is hard to get a photo.
Both a very funny to observe.
