Not sure this will help but it is the most informative article on dwarf puffers I've ever seen.

Hi there,
I’m looking to set up a DP tank in London but really don't think it’s ethical buying wild caught fish... does anyone have any or know of any captive breeders?
Many thanks
Emily

I'm in the US. We did have a large chain here (Petsmart) that had a breeding program for them but that was decades ago...
