Ok, I am on the hunt for another blowfish so that my Grant Baston tortured blowfish doesn't feel lonely. I have been hunting high and low for one with some pretty grain. So far, the only one I've come up with is below. It's an Il Duca, which I know absolutely nothing about. Thoughts on Il Duca? Has anyone seen another blowfish for sale that might work? trying to figure all this out before I pull the trigger.

I wish I was going to Chicago, but I have a friend's wedding that same weekend. Maybe next year, I hope. Are you going Roth?

That pipe really has beautiful graining, I can tell you from personal experience diving with these incredible gentle creatures, the pipe is aptly named.

Heading to Florida for a cruise, but if this one is still available when I return I will probably get it. I do like the grain.

I hope your cruise goes well and is nothing like that ship in the news from a few weeks ago.

Get a hold of the guy who runs briarportraitgallery.com and he can tell you who you want to get a blowfish from. His collection of blowfish runs in excess of 100 pipes.

Disney cruises are family oriented. My nephew took his daughter on one and had an excellent time. At times they will even have activities for children only so that you and your wife or girlfriend can have time alone or with other parents.

It's a nice one. I like the grain on the l duca a little better and the lighter stain.
