ok... so ive had my fahaka for about 2 months now (see avatar) hes about 8". since im new to puffers, i held off on naming him because i didnt want to name a fish if it was just going to die (yes i have done my research.... but since im new to them i just held off just incase i missed something)
anyway, now that i know how to take care of him.... im looking for a name. i dont know if its a girl or a boy.... he just looks like a boy to me.... so im considering him to be a male lol....... btw, saw this smiley... had to add it... it reminds me of my kitties and my nameless puffer so much haha
i was thinking TEGU or CONGA those are the only 2 names i can come up with that arent typical puffer names like spike puff blow... i like a unique and exotic name... anyone got any ideas?????

since they come from africa, how about something in that area? I've always though if I get a pair of fish, i'd call them Toki and Sambu from the 2 cheetahs featured on the show nature.
I believe you have small mud puddles mixed up with acres of rice paddies.

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."

Can you put a pic of the Fahaka here.. A face is easyer to call a name to i think
Mine Fahaka called Faya.. I had some names but i waited until i could see what her personality was.. Mine is just like a nice Lady, so she gets a nice Lady name..
If you'rs is a mean fast thing ( or something ) that i should try to find a name that fits his personality

Yep, fiberts and hazelnuts are the same thing! But I think Filbert is also a people-name.
