So I picked up 6 of them at a local swap meet and it was a mess. Disease and death and only two made it through. Most fish I purchase from reputable sources (normally other hobbyist or stores that I know have had the fish for 20-30 days. But with dwarf puffers I rarely see them local and they normally don't last long. And online I'm not really sure what sources are good and which are not.
I guess one options would be imported and sold by a reputable company who has high standards on fish they receive. Anyone know which places would be good vs. bad as far as dwarf puffers go?
My other question would be does anyone know of places that have high quality United States captive bread dwarf puffers? Or hobbyist who breed and sell them occasionally? That what I would love to find.
