Re: Our new edition - Fahaka Puffer

Well, he's only about 3" right now, but I have read that he will be very aggressive.

Re: Our new edition - Fahaka Puffer

Chris - what kind of tank decorations do you have with yours?  We don't have anything in with Beeker right now and we're trying to decide what's going to be most comfortable for him.

Re: Our new edition - Fahaka Puffer

I have a huge piece of driftwood in with Frank. No other decorations but im going to try adding some large swordplants or similar.

Eddie has a few small plants and a small plastic type cave so he can hide. Frank doesnt hide anymore, Eddie still hides if your doing waterchanges or gravel vacuuming.

I tried with both fahakas to keep additional fish with them. They dont like to share theyre space. I tried with goldfish larger than frank and he bit the faces off two of them before I could get them out. I wont be trying it again. Scott managed to keep large goldfish with his puffer so maybe I have boys?

8O  Bit their faces off???  Yeah.  I think Beeker will be in solitary confinement for his lifetime.

Definitely!!  I just didn't want to freak him out too much...he'd only been in the tank for about 30 minutes before I was snapping pictures.
