The adventures of Chungus the humpback puffer

Update on the stingrays. They are doing well and gaining weight but have been taken home by the owner. I got the arrowhead puffers onto frozen food and now they act like hungry puppies when they see food.
Also someone brought in a small silver arowana into the shop and I'm struggling to get it to eat. I assume it's because it's in a new environment and it's only been about 3 days for far. I'm just surprised at how different its behaviour is compared to other one.

So how everyone dealing with loadshedding?
I have an acdc air pump on Chungus's tank and at work there has not been electricity for nearly 48 hours due to a sub station problem. So we been using a generator for about 8 hours a day to run the pumps.

 

So I left my fish alone for 4 days without daily food. Their tanks were topped up and the lights were on timers.
Came back home today and all of them are fine. My 2 Cory fry even made it with out a daily food source and my angelfish laided eggs again and are now tending to wriggles after the male almost died a week ago from a hole in his stomach from an infection.

And Chungus is just waiting for his next meal as always.

 

New oddballs at work. Large African knife fish. Put them with the arowana.

 

That's a bronze featherfin, not an African knife

 

Oh yes that's correct! They're usually more heavily marked at a young age. But yes they get big and fairly aggro for a knife. Aro should be alright

 

They do have a small dorsal fin. Also supplier said that they were aba aba knife fish. So there was also that mistaken idenfication.

 

Definitely P afer, aba aba are all dorsal fin

 

I knew they weren't aba aba as soon as I saw them in person. Still I'm surprised at how large they are.

 

It'll still get a good bit bigger

 

Hopefully they aren't picky eaters else looks like I'm going to have to make special food for them as well as the puffers. The arowana eats anything that I put in the tank even filter floss while I was cleaning the tank.
