Default Puffer thread #6

Its time to start a new puffer thread because ........i got....FAHAKA SIGHTINGS!!!!!


Y618:

Fahaka puffer aka tetraodon lineatus (2 inches) - 10SGD each!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

I can confirm that its a fahaka puffer, 100% and its really cheap if you ask me. THe uncle doesnt know the name but im certain it is the fahaka. I bought 2 for myself and theres only 4 left. I been awaiting this baby fahaka for ages..cant wait to watch em grow wooooooo!!

Green spotted puffers-2 or 4 SGD each (cant rem)..tons of em ...

Dwaf puffers- think its 1 SGD each..also tons of em



Besides this, another bro has mentioned that he has also seen some fahakas at amk blk711. Not sure about that...anyone interested can check it out.


I tink 3 fahakas is enough for me to handle...



ENjoy bros..Happy Puffingz

The 2 tiny fahakas are currently comming in a 3ft tank for now because my other 3ft tank cracked! Well they are fighting so i had to put a divider. Once my new 3 ft tank comes, den they will be separted into a 3ft tank each

These are the pics of one of the fahakas with hes crab leg snack lol he can barely chew the legs, so i feed him bloodworms most of the time.




This is the picture of the other fahaka. Hes not that camera friendly so i only managed one good pic of him


& lastly, this is my big boy fahaka in hes 5 ft tank. Im redesigning the tank to make it fully planted thats why you can see that theres barely any sand inside.



Will try to upload pics of their growth phase but as of now, there isnt much different in the size and they have ICH!! all puffers bought from LFS seem to have ich anw lol

Seems that the fahakas at yishun n amk have been selling like hot cakes but no ones keeping this thread alive...COME ON POST UR PICZZZ

Happy Puffingzzz

hi shagy, thats alot of fahakas! thats alot of dedication

haha.. i bought 1 specimen from amk, really delighted to see a new shipment. its been 2 years ever since i sold my 10in fahaka to bro tadashi 2 years back due to my enlistment.

Its currently housed with my palembang(via divider) till my 48x24x20in tank arrives next week. Have already bought all the brand new equipment, just waiting for the tank to arrive

Will upload some pics when its up and......happy puffer keeping!

saw a few types of puffer at amk today. green and "yellow" puffers. together with some fahaka or palembang.

anyway can anyone advise me on the "yellow" puffer? not sure what they really are. seems like overgrown dwarf puffers

do you mean green spotted puffers? they are greenish yellow with black polka dots. They are extremely active, aggressive and personable. But their harder to maintain when adult, requiring brackish to almost marine water conditions.
