Hi everyone.

It really makes me happy to read all the kind words about the photos of my Fahaka that Johanski has taken. He's a really a strong growing puffer and has already eaten almost one kilograms shrimps in the last 6 months. :) I also give him a home made mix witch contains shrimps, salmon, dry fish-food, banana and garlic.

He's the fish that I care most of at the moment and has got a really nice colour in the last four weeks. At the moment he's 17 cm and will need a bigger tank in a while.
