thanks, yeah i threw some mysis shrimp in the bowl that the shrimp are kept in and they've been feeding on that. i know they're not very nutritional unless they're gut loaded so i don't usually give them to my puffer but every so often i like giving him one or two. the first few times i gave him one he had no idea what to do with it lol it was pretty funny, he's getting better though, as you can see=]

that's funny! hope they're gutloaded so he's getting a lot of nutrients! porcupine's are by far the coolest puffers out there!

That was awesome.

My Fahaka is to lazy/big to chase down ghosts. But even when I toss in a full grown crayfish he never chases like that.
