no its definitely illegal in florida as we have a national park for 11 miles off our coast, at least in south florida. But will definitely be keeping them submerged in 50g bags with 5-15 LR/Coral at a time.

So woke up this morning to find one of my figure 8's dead!!!? =( checked water parameters all very clean within reason, if anything suspiciously too clean. Water had changed a bit more fw was around 1.004 instead of what I had it around 1.007. Other puffer looks healthy although Im baffled to why the smaller one died? Also did another water change and increased salinity back to original parameters as I've noticed algae growing ever since I lowered the salinity.
