Changing eye color Fahaka.

Post by bauk »

Never seen it before.. :redface: Maybee i did but never thought about it..

The only thing I do not like about my Fahaka were her eyes.. I don't like the color red ;) But this morning when 1 light go's on and she came with a sleapy head out of her cave.. she had the most beautiful eyes i even seen!! :smitten:

It was realy hard to take a good pic with so little light, but some pics of Faya's beautiful good morning eyes! ;)

Ratchets change depending on the time of day and the amount of light in the tank. Gorgeous pictures.

I'm learning that puffer fish are like pringles. There is no such thing as only wanting one.

Tanks:
38 gallon: 1 Figure 8 puffer, 1 Dragon Goby, 1 Knight Goby, 3 Black Mollies
30 gallon: 1 Blue Acara, 1 Bristlenose Pleco
120 gallon: Ratchet the Fahaka Puffer

That's so neat! Excellent pictures.
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Aw, sunrise eyes and firey eyes!
"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."

Found among the papers of Mohatma Gandhi
