Thank you to all who entered, and let the games begin!
Entry #1:
- Species: Tetraodon Fluviatilis
- Name: Pickles
- Age: Pretty young, but I don't know the exact age, and he's only about 1 month old to me, so add another 6 months-ish, and we'll say 7 months as a guess.
- Size: 1.5 inches (roughly)
- Brief description: Pickles is one of the two baby Ceylons in my 55 gallon tank. His inhabitants include Allakazam (the other Ceylon), a Knight Goby, and a Red Clawed Crab. He enjoys begging for food, long strolls on the sandy floor, and staying up late while watching me on the computer. His favourite food also appears to be anything that fits into his mouth, hehe.
Entry #2:
Species - Tetraodon Mbu
Name of Puffer - Moobo
Age (if known) - 2 years
Size - 7" (including tail)
Brief description - Moobo photographed at home in action playing with his ping pong ball!

Name of Puffer: Elvis
Age (if known): Approx 11 months
Size: 5"-6"
Brief description: He currently lives a 120 Gallon 6' long tank with his two brothers "Cheech & Chong (GSP)

very entertaining and likes to ride the waves from the powerheads.
Entry #4:
- Species: Tetraodon sabahensis
- Name of Puffer: Dictator, aka Tator
- Age (if known): uknown- Size: 6.5"
- Brief description - Yawning in our aquarium, always has black tummy when aquarium lights are on
Entry #5:
This is Freckles. He is a dwarf puffer. He is about an inch long(including his tail). I named him Freckles because he has little black dots all over his back that look like freckles. He is my favorite out of all five of my dps because he is the only one who isn't scared of me. He follows me around his tank when he sees me and tries to bite my finger through the glass. He is almost always begging for food. I don't know how old he is, but he is one of the two I've had the longest.
Entry #6:
Tetraodon nigroviridis
Her name is Rolly
She is a baby I have had her for 3 days

Brief description - one of 3 females, this little puff is in the middle size wise but rules the roost, having now developed a dark stripe along her belly. Her favourite food is live bloodworm but she's partial to a nice bit of chopped mussel on occasion. She's always the first to appear at dinner time.
Entry #8:
- Species: Tetraodon fluviatilis
- Name of Puffer: PuffPuff
- Age (if known): 1-2 years old
- Size: Just over 2", standard length
- Brief description: We had just fed them some crab legs, and it looked like that piece she's biting on was stuck, so ** sucked it up, and was going to try to dislodge it. She swam over slowly...and then let go of the piece of crab and went after **'s hand... he got it out just in time to avoid being bitten. **names changed to protect identity**
