2 survivor black molly's that i had when i cycled the tank and a few copper barbs thats going to be relocated home to my sis... no need to worry, apart from the molly's that has elude my every attempt to catch them... i need to level up my netting skills :D

He is around 9-10cm, about 3,5 to 3,9 inch and he is quite a happy little blob.

Did you see the bubbles? he usually hoover around the surface when im there and making bubbles... one more way to make me go aaaaw =)

I was half expecting to see him come flying out of the water like a cruise missile shot from a submarine and latch on to the camera (I've seen bettas do it.)

Fahakas are really cool fish. Wish I had the room for a tank big enough for one.

oh my god! that puffer is great! that is the most eager puffer ive ever seen. i think if he could get out of the tank at you he would. i wish my F8s did that. Im starting to have a thing for Fahakas... might see myself upgrading to a big puffer like that in the future... what a beggar! lol blob
