That's awesome.... Lady's voice is a little irritating lol, but the fish is cool!
I've only seen my Fahaka do this once, but didn't have my camera handy!
Good video.

Re: Mbu puffing up
Vids like that make me sad for the Stars and Stripes I saw the other day... he / she was full grown and just larger than a rugby ball. Really, really nice.

Re: Mbu puffing up
also only caught my lineatus do it once was so mesmerised didnt have the ability to get my phone out to take a photo its the coolest thing to watch but concerns me as to why he did it and to his future health
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly
