Around 1"/month, especially is placed in your large tank.

Ok well that’s not to bad I guess getting a smaller one wouldn’t be that bad at all then if they grow like that.

As for availability Fahakas are seasonal so look in I belive spring and fall for new species to be available. As for price I see the in California for around $100 on a regular basis.


Good so that will give me some time to sell all of my bichirs if I can ever find some one serious about buying them.
 
Fahakas are just starting to be sold I've seen a couple of them in different lfs' around Chicago. Since your in Indiana it maybe worth your time to make a little visit. Normal price I see them for is $40-60 for a 2-3 inch puffer I personally think that's the size you want there fun to feed and watch grow and it gives them the chance to know you, I use to pet mine like an aquatic dog, best fish I've ever kept are fw puffers.

Ill have to call around up there i was just up there last weekend.
 
We had one at Coral Reef in Norridge & Ocean Design in Chicago. Both about $30 for 2".
 
best of luck with getting one, and once you do, be sure to post up pics...
 
The 2 places puffer punk mentioned usually have them at this time you should call them. If I find 1 I'll let you know as well.
 
well I may have one coming next week i went to the lfs store and the guy showed me there stock list they had some on there didn’t say what size all it said was small for 25 i was expecting it to be more but will see if it comes in and if it rally is a fahaka.
