I love her tank, my daughter would go potty over that (and I'm not showing her). And Kiwi is adorable :smitten:

I was going for naturalish, plus color. Believe it or not most things in there were a dollar, everything else under 3 except for the wood decor.

I like the name Kiwi since the puffer really does look like the inside of a kiwi fruit.

It was time for a change. Plus that's what my family calls me. They pick on me because I can always fit one more silk plant in there. Plus I can't stand if something is out of place. And I'll spend hours put things in just the right place.

I don't like to have a lot of fish in the tank, so I like to make the tank itself interesting to look at.

I wanna change my avatar next :)

Lol! That was an old quote from back when I was much more B@tchy. Back then Wal-Mart was selling Puffers like hotcakes and people kept coming on here saying some really stupid stuff.... To be fair I found this place in the same way, but man...some of those people.... just downright animal abuse. There is a difference between not knowing better and being a butthead.

So, somebody got uppity with me and xray stood up for me.


By the way....if you ever want to find the world's most brilliant people AND the world's idiots....go hang on a fish forum. A fish forum is like no place on earth!

Lol, I know what you mean :) I cringe when I see people buying fish at walmart or worse any of the stores that still have gsps :(
