Hello from ME :)

Post by chefjamesscott »

Greets, I am from Regina, Saskatchewan. I came across this forum looking for information on a type of puffer I just had shipped to me from a recent visit to Riverfront in Calgary, Ab.

What is interesting is that the puffer I was looking for information on is the one that was the featured puffer on the front page. Talk about sign of being in the right place to find information :D . I currently have him in a 4 foot 140g tall with some wood and a sand substrate. I have no pics but was able to find out that he is a Takifugu Ocellatus.

Now to find out all I can about him.

I will also be realizing a dream of mine next week as I rehome a 9 inch mbu.

Thanks and pleased to meet you

Is there a person on this forum called puffer punk who is also on MFK?

It would seem that I have to do a flip on this tank to make it into a high end brackish to make my new fish a bit more at home. I should get my camera out and take a few pics and start a thread on the fish.
