You lucky sob.....lol One of the hardest puffers to get you hands on. Like finding a extremely rare collectable.

Great video :grats: . Btw, I have a few questions though. Why do you have the heater in front of the tank or are you filming and taking pics from the back of the tank? And one more, why so many small fishes and lil ghosties? You do know, you can feed him raw market shrimp, raw clam on a half shell, crayfish, and freshwater crabs.

I am a newbie with Puffer fish (Arowana & Stingray man) and not sure of the food requirement. Just cannot resist this puffer fish and buy now and learn later attitude.
Thanks to many expert's advise & read up the forum posting, I have change the puffer diet to clams, snails, market prawn and some superworm (it favourite food).
