Takifugu ocellatus photos?

Post by Myaj »

Does anyone have any good, clear ocellatus photos they'd like to submit to the PufferPedia? This species has been showing up quite a bit lately in stores and we don't have any really good photos as of yet.

Thanks!

I'd try Sean, maybe he or some of his other Taiwanese buddies has one.

Yes, I'm going to email Fatpuffer about those, however that one doesn't have "standard" coloration so I'm hoping for some "normal" colored ones too.

If you want to use any of those go ahead. I can try to get some T. occellatus pix next time or ask midgetwaiter for some.

There's this one but it isn't the greatest, I'll pm you a higher res version. I just moved it into a new marine tank so once he settles down I'll try and snap some. I'll try and get one from my display at work as well, that one is huge and really green for some reason.

I added a bunch of stuff to my user gallery. It's tough to get good pics of the ocellatus because it moves so fast, the only clear pics you can get are when they are resting or cornered.

Here he is after I chased him into a corner, the light sucks but it came out okay.

and here's the whole tank

There's also a decent pic of my fang's / tugurdis (can't make up my mind) in there if you want to use that. It's probably a cochinchinensis.
