Nope I live in the UK.

I'm having second thoughts regarding a humpback. Been using the search bar and doing a lot of clicking and scrolling, sort of put off because one member said sometimes they look like they have broken backs and from what I've gathered a lot of members think they are one of the most in active puffers out there. I don't want that thinking about it, but I feel drawn to the target/lurker types because I like big fish, they have so much more personality. I'm a bit confused and don't know where to go from here.

The "humped" back is what makes them so unique! I think they are one of the most beautifully-marked of all the puffer species. All the target/lurker species hide 99% of the time though.
