Re: Shellie - Turgidus Puffer
She looks so hug-able!
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: Shellie - Turgidus Puffer
Thanks lil, no I do not use flash, I was checking out the ISO settings when I took those pics, I like using the aquarium macro setting .. seems to come out a bit clearer, but not as bright.

Re: Shellie - Turgidus Puffer
Sometimes she is, she is more of a nocturnal puffer though. Each puffer is truely different though. During the day, she is either looking for food, hiding under her drift wood. Or she'll be hiding, then when I just peek my head through the door as soon as she see's me she comes out of her hiding spot
