My Old Valentinis

Post by pufferfreak »

So i know i talk about them a lot but here they are :D. Hero (the male and bigger of the two) & Aero. History behind the names. Hero was my first puffer and i had a tank set up but i realized it was much to small (7 gallons) so i panicked and moved all the water and filter media to the 15 and he survived the whole cycle! :shock:. I felt terrible for him but i kept up on water changes and what not and he was a hero since he survived :D. Aero was just a random name. I thought it went well with hero to. Anyways here is a vid. Please excuse the water quality as it was a bit sandy (new LR).

Aw! Cute!

Is that song by the same group that did "Collide"? Just random... sorry...
"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."

It was a 15..... :paranoid:

I did have a 90 lined up for them though. But they never made the move as in they didn't last long enough. :(.

really? It looks very long. I have a 30 long and I thought yours looked bigger, but I'm only used to the size of the valentinis at the lfs.
