Ace the Fahaka Puffer

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Great looking puffer you got there? How old is he/she?

Also, hows the tank mates holding up with your fahaka? are you losing many or is the fact you have so many small fast moving fish in with your puffer, that it doesn't take notice of them?

Thanks! I think he's about 2 years old. I got him when he was about 8 inches already so I'm just guessing his age. I lose probably 1 of the red blue tetras or giant danios a week. He's really content, lazy, with getting fed snails so I don't see him chase his tank mates that often. Most of the time it's their fault for getting too close to the big guy's mouth when they're picking up bits of snail or shrimp.

Nice looker! I had a bunch of barbs in with mine and she only ate one. They intimidated her with all the movement so she just laid on the bottom till I took them out. Enjoy it! Without a doubt the favorite fish in our house for my whole family.

Thats cool to hear, sounds a bit like my girl, as long as tankmates dont get too near the business end of her, she tends to ignore them...
