Thankyou...I think so too, but I am biased! Ares lip finally healed from the claw slinging shrimp of death!

Re: Few pics of my puffs!

Fahaka puffers are so cool! (hope Im right about the type!!) Are those little guys F8s? Such wild patterns!

Re: Few pics of my puffs!
Very cute! Your F8s are so much more round than ours 
It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Re: Few pics of my puffs!
Yep, Ares is a fahaka and Fugu and Gizzy are f8's. The only f8's around here always have crazy patters. Fugu is really big, he's about 4". Fugu is very round...he's a pig. He takes more than his share of food! We've had Ares since March. I've been giving him vitamins and have worked him and he has gon from about 6" to 7.5-8" in that time!

Re: Few pics of my puffs!
Awesome puffers . It still amazes me how fahakas change colour to blend into the substrate mines darker since I put in dark substrate, such cool creatures
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Re: Few pics of my puffs!
My Congo changes the most. She's usually really pale, solid yellow. Sometimes she is gray with almost black stripes...very cool!

Re: Few pics of my puffs!
She's in a 10gallon tank right now until I get my 30gallon cleared of ich. After that some things are being moved around and she will go in a 20 tall for a few weeks until i can get her a 20long or her own 30. There's about to be a lot of tank swapping going on next weekend. Between my SAP's getting horrible Ich that killed them and getting tanks ready to go for the GSP's I saved from being flushed, it has Bern hectic around here! I can't wait to get everything straightened out and get back on some type of schedule!!!!
