My new hairy puffer (updated with pics)

Today I got a hairy puffer for $50. I have named him WOLF! So far he's doing good and is pretty active. After I bought him, as I was walking out to my car he bit a hole in the bag. So I had to go back inside and get it triple bagged. He didn't bite through it after that. As I was putting him in the tank he puffed up. He gave me a scare because he was puffed up with air, but when he went into the water he was fine. I already have a Fahaka so is there anything different about the care of these two? How often should I feed him? He's around 2 or 3 inches. I should have pics in a couple of days. Already read the feeding by Rocker and the page in the pufferpedia.

Sounds awesome. You don't have them together do you?

Nice pickup Fahakaman. Try a feeding every couple of days and see if he goes for it.

Congrats on the new puffer. S/he looks very tough. Love those eyes! Amazing it is only two or three inches. S/he looks much bigger!
