Urgent ID required!

Post by scpion »

Hey! Came across this beauty at my Lfs. They have no idea what's the name. It's currently in FW. Urgently require ID. There seems to be some kind of "fur" on the body. Not visible in photo but clear with naked eye.

Looks like a narrow lined puffer. If someone else here confirms, this it is a full saltwater puffer. Unsure about the "fur". Corvus and PP should be able chime in on this.

Ya. I reference it with the pics in the Puffer library. It should be a narrow lined puffer. Pity the little guy. :(

+1 most lfs won't have an issue with you informing them about things like this. If they have salt water tanks it shouldn't be too hard for them to run a full drip acclimation back to full salt.
