I have never heard of a fox face puffer fish. Are you thinking the Fox face a type of rabbitfish?

Re: saw what was labled a 'fox face puffer'
a fox is a dog so I guess that is ok. Heck I've been to a store that labels fish with their disney names. Blue hippos are Dori fish, Clowns are Nemos, the banner fish are whatever the old Morish Idol was. It was funny.

LMAO, now THAT's hilarious! Yeah, all the LFSs around here just use generic names like "green puffer", etc.

MY LFS/LPS stopped with the finding nemo names thankfully.
The tanks would say, Clownfish/"Nemos" Same with hippo tangs and everything, it was pretty amusing.

In England they call them fox faced puffers. It is just a dog faced puffer.
