Yellow fin fugu

Post by Corvus »

Just sharing.... another puffer species not so adequate for the average hobbyist (large, temperate waters), but with a quite nice coloration:

Takifugu xanthopterus

Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day. Give a fish a man, and he'll eat for weeks.

Ditto here, and I'm not even Canadian.
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Found among the papers of Mohatma Gandhi
