After I can't tell you how many poor pictures I've taken, I finally got a good one of my puffer. Since I can't do traditional thumbnails in the photography forum, let's try it this way...

COOL, what kind of puffer is that?

Dogface Puffer (Arothron manilensis) aka narrow lined puffer... Such a cool fish. More like a pet than a fish. They have a lot of personality.

Are you sure that's a dogface. Doesn't look like any that I have ever seen. The narrow lined puffer makes sense though.

I bought it as a "Stripped Puffer". At the time I was looking to buy it, I was able to find info on a fish by this name, but I can't seem to find any now.

waterdog I'm sure it is a dogface. I have to ask is that a serious ?. I had the same fish in my tank... I was crushed when I lossed the 2 week battle to ick. You can see in my avatar one of the special moment in our lives that I managed to capture on film when Puffy the Guppy Slayer showed who was boss. Such a cool personality. They really make the hobby enjoyable. jacksonpt enjoy em while you've got em.
