heh its both or either or maybe the same name means both, when you google tetradoxin it comes up as pufferfish poison and when you google tetrodotoxin it comes up as well. either way its bad stuff

Well now I am a little pi$$ed at my being used at the LFS. What recourse, if any, do I have?

I should have known better any way, When he pulled Lil Yeller fom his tank he used only a net. Straight bagged him. I almost hit the floor when he didnt even try to keep him in water!!
He was in the air for about 3 seconds. I was worried that he was going to puff at any time!!
Thanksfully he didnt.
So what is the advice of the board? Now, what do I do?
Thanks,
D

heh well feed him a diet high in protein like shrimp bloodworms and emerald entree is good as its got veggies too and the puffers eat them on the way to the shrimp mixed in.

as for beign dyed? the pic is hard to really be 100% sure, mine is streed like that color, and some are that deeper creme naturally, however not using a container and nettign a porc is bad mojo. if your lfs isnt willing to do the right thing, then find a new lfs or talk to the manager and explain WHY they should use the containers and not nets.

Seems a lil too bright yellow to be natural.
