The Puffer Forum

I went to LFS yesterday and saw a 3 inch fahaka burrow under the sand??? Does your fahaka does the smae?I didnt know they can be lurkers as well.

I've heard of young ones burrowing. I think it's more like hiding, rather than lurking.

Mine never burrows but i'd like to see him do it lol all he does is blow the sand around haha

Like this?

haha thats cute...i really like the coloration of the fahakas eyes..probably the prettiest out of most fw puffer

YESSSS!!! I wish pookie would do that! haha hey what kind of sand are you using? that would look awesome in my tank!!

It's Seachem black onyx sand for planted tanks.

I swear everytime she buries herself she about gives me a heart attack.

You can sex fahakas?

Not that I am aware of. I call Annabelle a She because I say she's a "SHE".

hehe i see..*she* have pretty eyez!!is your fahak active since she's a baby?

She was, but recently she's been ill. She's having good days and bad days right now. She has/had (not sure if it's over yet) a very bad case of tapeworm. You can look in the hospital section under Annabelle (IP's). Some of the pictures are really graphic (fair warning). As of today I'm still treating her. She looked much better and more active this morning. We have been fighting this for over a month now. I will not give up on her!

I'm hoping it will be over soon. I can't wait to see her in all her glory again.

poor annabelle..she been through alot..SHE WILL MAKE IT!!!
