Thank you. I really enjoy her. Puffers really do a lot of weird stuff..

I plan to redecorate the tank one day. I am considering buying plastic plants because she eat any plant I but in there.. But I'm afraid she'll eat (or at least destroy) those 'plants' too..

Any ideas?

That's a great looking puff, I've only seen one once before.

Are they fairly common in your area? I like to get a hold of one.

I've never seen ore heard of anyone else keeping this puffer. A guy I know caught this fish on his vacation a couple of years ago. He didn't know what it was, and sold it to a puffer freak when he got home.

A couple of months ago I saw this puffer for sale. I'd never heard of this puffer, but I decided to buy it anyway. At least five were fighting to get their hands on this fish only after a couple of minutes, but I was the first one. Then I called my boyfriend to tell about it, and i turned out he knew the guy! So we went to pick up the fish, and that was when we heard the story about the wasps.

I don't see any pics! Waaaahhh, I wanna see pics! :29:
How much did you pay for it?

Payed about 30 USD for the psittacus and a GSP. He wanted to sell them together cause they were so good friends. They've been together since day one. The seller only cared about finding them a good home. He said it was adequate selling them to someone he knew. I would feel that way too.

A little while ago, I bought 2 more GSPs. They're all friends..

I moved the tank yesterday, so the water should be clear by now. I'll try to get some more pics. I had to move the tank because i bought a new 430 liter aquarium!!

Wow, I hope that'll be bigenough! Personally, I wouldn't keep them together as they grow towards adulthood. That tank will be big enough for the 3 GSPs alone. The C psittacus will outgrow the GSPs by 2x.

Only the psittacus is moving to the new tank, once it's up and running.

Cool! You'll need one just as large, for 3 adult GSPs too.

Yup. That would be great!
