hi Jamie, ive just found this forum and this is my 1st post, sorry to hear about your puffer, its a sad thing for anyone to loose any pet.

hop you dont mind me asking but I wondered if you could give me some information on the Arothon nigrapunctas ?

im currently waiting for my 6x2x2 custom tank to be delivered in two weeks time, its my 1st marine tank and im intending on keeping just a puffer and a lionfish.

I had decided to get a dogface puffer but then saw the negrapunctas on a forum somewhere and started to look it up, strange thing is that the only one ive seen like it in the shops is just called a Dogface puffer, Ive never seen a puffer for sale in the shops called a negrapunctas.

is the Negrapunctas known as anything else ?

am I correct that the negrapunctas grows to around 14" in lengh ?

anything else you might be able to tell me would be of graet help to me.

Rgds Lee.

Ashber 100, there is a profile in this species in the PufferPedia, under the Learn tab.

On a further note im glad your puffer is doing better again. He looks amazing.

Is your tank just cloudy because you recently set it up?

late answer :P i don't like it when i have to tel my story in bad english :P
uuhm, i don't know how you say it but that fish is a kind of a lionfish.
he is called the ablabys taenianotus. but he died a month ago :(
and yes i recently set the tank up at that moment.
a few weeks ago i had a problem with my water. it was totaly green!
so i bought a UV-light and now look at the result! tis is a picture from 6 days.

day 1

day 7

and about the arothron nigropunctatus, its a very nice fish.
he is very kind to all the other fishes in the tank :)
i know he grows to 33 cm. ( i don't know how much '')
and he is just called the arothron nigropunctatus or dogfaced puffer.
it's a great puffer to have in your tank :)

he was a little bit sick :(

He IS cute! I love that one of him looking at the tiny starfish. How big is he now?

You haven't been here in forever! Just the other day I was wondering how your puffer was doing.
