The Puffer Forum

... of my new 6" Fahaka.

Nice looking chubber you have there

Thanks bertie83, I've been in the hobby for over 30 yrs and it's been quite some time since I've been this excited about a fish.

There is nothing quite like the feeling of acquiring a new puffer. I still get all silly when I see them in shops, like a child in a sweet shop.

Looks very healthy. Try your best to not overfeed the lil beggar! I'd feed every other day.

Thanks Pufferpunk, every other day it is.

beautiful puffer, mine is right around the same size... Like it was said above... DO NOT OVER FEED... I threw in 4 crabs one day with the expectation of phil just grazing on them as he needed... a minute later all of them were gone and Phil was almost twice as thick ha ha. Enjoy your new fahaka

Thanks redsox19, enjoyed your "Phil" videos, will be looking for some small crabs this weekend.

I also don't see signs of IPs in that fatty.
