While this page was meant to be a short article, many of you have wanted a page just about the Mekasia fish. So here it is...sorta. This is the beginning of a story that you surfers will get to edit. (Kinda) By getting the Mekasia fish, you not only get a fish...but you get something that no one has ever seen before. You get a fish that is very easy to take care of and one of the simplest fish to raise and breed. This article will tell you how to do it. After this month, if there is a strong response, the Mekasia Page will forever exist on the page. Email us your thoughts! Hopefully we'll have tips, and a breeding chart, and some other cool stuff. But first, the story!

The Happy Little E-Fish

A while back, on Valentine's Day, my girlfriend brought me a disk. It was a surprise for me! (Obviously) After opening it, I was even more intruigued since she had placed fishy stickers all over it. In my excitment, I shoved the diskette into my drive and double clicked on the disk icon. What i found was odd...it was several files, one of which said, "PUFF-KIT.HQX" I decoded the file and unstuffed it. Then, I opened the folder...
I had recieved the pufferchrome kit from AquaZone! (Well, actually from my girlfriend....) After getting over the intial shock, I quickly began setting up a tank for them....

Several Months Later...

I have sucessfully bred the Pufferchromes. All of their health is at 100%. I have 0% loss and 1% gain. The Pufferchrome is easily one of the best fish ever!
To start off, I selected several healthy Pufferchromes. I was hoping, with any luck, I should be able to give them a decent home. Well, luck definetly changed! I was able to create a home so well suited to their needs that they would breed. Their tank has a 10.0 and greater level of ammonia. I have their feeder set to feed them several times a day, and a timer to give them constant light hours. The tank is roughly 17 gallons which house four Pufferchromes, one infant, and one egg.

I plan on raising more infants up to the adult stage for breeding.

The simplest way to breed these guys is to give them a constant home; constant feeding times, constant light, and constant water quality. Raise them up from 54 health level to 100 is very easy. Keep going at it and eventually you will have a whole tank full of Pufferchromes to take care of! They also seem to exhibit a pairing off behavior, but that may just be my own fish.
