he loves his food i see!!!
i cant wait for mine to grow!
so many puffers reach the usual 6-8" long.
so im looking forward to having a big tank with a big boy in it!
hope that dont sound rude!!

You won't have to wait long Lesley at the rate a Fahaka grows!

Aw, he's adorable!!!

His eyes make me think that he might have been stunted before you got him. But I could be totally wrong... *tootles off to look up eye proportions and stunting*

Im the same Lesley, my boy is such a cutie cant help but wonder what he is going to be like when he grows up

I really hope he isnt stunted, he was barely in the store before he came to me. He looks like the others Ive seen but then Im definately no expert!

That has to be a HUGE tank fir him right now! Very cute!

He is gorgous good luck with him!!!

Congratz on your new puff!!
Nooki looks very good

Thanks guys
Very proud of him, still a little shy when I introduce food but taking it all including worms now. Proper hunter instincts are setting in with shrimp lol, he hard to work hard against the gut loaded ninja shrimp that went in today.

He also is already starting to develop maroon in his stripes, it was only splodges at first but they have become more defined slithers, really surprised how well he has settled in and developed!

Cant believe it has been a month since we got him, he is a fab boy, still has a sense of shyness when working in the tank which Im sure will soon disappear. He loves company and his food..well lets just say he ripped the mussel out of my hand the other day and ran off, I honestly couldnt believe it!
Here is my little boys one month pics, he has gained healthily and grown too

Lovely photos Amy!
