Most awesome impulse yet!

[eklikewhoa]

So I was out with ibitegirls gathering things to set up his tank and I was dead set on getting a little turtle for my impulse tank to round off the theme.

Stopped off at Xtreme fish and pet and this is what I saw in one of the lower tanks.... FAHAKAs! really small and somewhat cheap so I snagged one instead of a turtle since those weren't too hot looking.


Meet Turtle!



He's pissed cause I just tried using a mj1200 w/sponge instead of the HOB but that didn't work out too well and I removed all the fern in the tank in lieu of a lush mosswall I got from weslydunder.

trying to watch me with both eyes...

Awesome. Much better than a turtle

[eklikewhoa]

LoL, indeed he is!

[electricblue]

Nice, how much was he... I need to get another tank and just throw everything I like in there. Survival of the fittest

[eklikewhoa]

It was marked $19.99

[eklikewhoa]

So far his tankmates are....
-pr. Halfbeaks
-5 pygmy corys
-4 yellow jacket endlers
-4 o-cats
-hand full of clams from the creek
-dwarf crawfish
-4 pygmy sunfish

Great pictures. That little face is too cute... Turtle is much better than a turtle.

Keep us updated! I can't wait to see who he eats first! )

I have heard and read that if you introduce them into a tank with other tankmates and there small enough, you can get lucky and have them all get along. Great impulse buy!!

LOL how cool! I never knew they buried themselves like that.

I've seen saltwater do it, never knew these did it.

Depends on what type of puffer. Fahakas are fresh.
