normal color for a fahaka?

[andruboz]

does this look right to any other fahaka puffer owners?

- the few white spots are on the camera lense. not the fish.

do they have a thread here for photos or would that take up too much hard drive on the server?

What I have learned is that not many people here have any of the larger puffers. My uncle had one and it looked like that same colors and everything it was a bit darker though his died though darn dumb nut put some drop to clear the cloudy water went to sleep woke up it was clear as hell well he figured if those little drops did that what would the whole bottle do dumped all of it in there went bake to sleep woke up and well his puffer wasnt the same he was swimming all weird and eventually died. Well but yeah he looks normal.

Looks right to me as well. how big is your fahaka? I have one at about 7 inches now. when they get a little stressed the may become a little bit darker.
