Re: Canthigaster figueiredoi
Oh yes. It changes its colors dramatically. At night it is brown with white blotches. The blue and the black lines are entirely gone.

WOW! Now THAT is one impressive-looking Canthigaster! I'm guessing that's a pretty rare puffer?

Quite common at some coastal areas in the Western Atlantic, but - at least in Germany - this is the first import I am aware of.Agnate wrote:WOW! Now THAT is one impressive-looking Canthigaster! I'm guessing that's a pretty rare puffer?
