I think it is an Abei, albeit a very thin one.

Im assuming its a juvie? I was told by the supplier that it came in as "Large" .
Thinking I might have to dose it with prazipro once it gets settled in.

Not a T. duboisi. Wrong body shape and in addition this puffer has a target spot. I think M. abei.
