Age?!

Post by ACF »

Im curious as to knowing how a Fahaka PuffR ages?? I got my fata$$ (as i called him) at 5" long ... i was never sure about his age considering the length i got him at but assume he was under a year. He now has passed :(
On a brighter note I have a new Baby Fahaka that is no larger than 1.5-2"s long

Considering that picture^ How old would *Anyone* estimate her at?

Thanks!!

From what I understand they grow about 1" per month for the first year. So maybe 2 months old. :D
