Nice pic. That looks and sounds like an awesome dp setup. Do you have any full tank shots to share?

Aint that the truth...With any fish. If you're lucky you get one good pic out of every 10.
There are many knowledgeable fish keepers on this forum willing to help and give great advice...The advice is free; What you choose to do with it gives it value.

LoL I put it on continuous shot on my DSLR and shoot away. Out of every 50 pictures that I get, I am super lucky if I get two awesome ones, haha. I had to start weeding them out before loading them on smug mug because they all took too long to load. That's the way with puffers ahahaha. =)

Love the setup. I always decorated more as they grew older. More decor = less fighting. Will try to dig out some pics for ideas.
