We named her Nala after the Lion King
She is currently in a 90 gallon all to herself
She was temporarily split with a sting ray, and now she is all alone once again. Which she seems a lot happier 
She's so tiny!!

Re: Nala - Fahaka Puffer
Oh Lisa, she's a beautiful little puffer! Very lovely. How big is she? Her colours are very strong. My Obie changes alot going from very mild colours to bolder colours when he's "hunting".
Congrats on the very pretty little puffer Nala!

Re: Nala - Fahaka Puffer
She's got good colouring for that size. My Obie is about 4" and like I said, sometimes his colouring is very soft and pastel like, other times it's quite bold. But he didn't have the sort of colouring that your Nala has when he was that size.

Re: Nala - Fahaka Puffer
Hmm.. Obie is pretty darn cute too. When we first put Nala in the tank she was incredibly dark
& she had a bunch of bruises on her stomach, she no longer has the bruises, and she seems to have settled into her new environment.

Re: Nala - Fahaka Puffer
Gorgeous! It's so nice to see them in a large tank to begin with
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.

Re: Nala - Fahaka Puffer
Thanks Flutter, she is well worth a 90 gallon all to herself!!
Once we get Kaleeko into a 450 we will be moving her into the 120, and that is where she will live out her life.
We are going to keep the 3M Colourquartz - plum sand in there, I would like to see if the purple will bring out the vibrance in her stripes

Re: Nala - Fahaka Puffer
I swear big puffers know they are going to be growing and get crabby about tank size way sooner than their current size indicates.

Re: Nala - Fahaka Puffer
awe she looks so healthy, these are the kinds of new puffer pix i love seeing, shes beautiful... i only wish i could have gotten my fahaka as a "puppy" (lol, since they act like dogs), i would have loved to see Kukah grow up into the big aquatic pitt bull that he is today
best wishes and many happy years with your new aquatic puppy! btw, Kaleeko is STUNNING! i love your avatar pic, by far the prettiest mbu pic ive seen to date, absolutely gorgeous!
EDIT: jus saw ur gallery... you should really think about entering kaleeko's pic where he/shes looking at his/her reflection in the POTM contest.... i little cropping and youd have yourself one adoreable pic
