Hey PF, I figure I would post up some pic's of my lil guy......CONAN! I have had him for about 6 weeks now and his lines are starting to really come in now so I'm pretty stoked...he has gone from a wee 1 3/4 - 2" to about 3 1/2" and still growing. He is in a planted 90g, get's 50% WC's every other day and eats a mix of Danichi pellets, pemysis and clams on the half shell. Hope you guy's enjoy the pic's and I will post an update in several more weeks.

He was all tough at first but then he got camera shy and went to hide in the plants. I gotta get him used to the camera. :D

Thanks everyone, and I would have submited #2 but he had to be in the one corner of the tank that had a few algae spots :? Oh well i will try and nab a better shoot soon. Full tank shot as requested. Thanks again for all the feed back.

I love it all. Your puffer and setup both look great (oh, and the pictures too!).

What on earth is that plant on the right? I like it :lol:

LD I highly doubt there is a person on this forum that would have cared about the algae, I didnt even notice it. His eyes had my attention to much

Oh and BEAUTIFUL tank. Im really starting to like the idea of less plants. More room to swim.

What a gorgeous fish! Very nice photography, too! I so wish I could have a fahaka. I'll have to live vicariously through all you guys though.

Thanks a ton for the kind words everyone! The plant on the right is the only one I have no idea what it is, I will try and find out soon but I found it at a LFS. They did not know much about it but it was cheap and I liked the foliage on it so I figured why not give it a shot. Well it is growing like no tommarow now lol.

You do have a beautiful tank ... and if I'm not mistaken the plant on the right is an Aponogeton -- they are lovely plants. Come as bulbs and fairly easy to grow. I've got a several in different tanks and thinking about buying more soon.
