If you were in the same country then I would be glad for you to have a captive bred suvattii.!!

They are around 10mm for head to tail. The bloodworm in the pic gives you an idea of size. they will take 2 or 3 of these at a feed. They are fed 4-5 times a day.

Thats the heartbreaker! I would dearly love to keep them all. But you no thats not possible. My friends shop will take them but I would love TPF members to be interested in them.

Yep but the detail on them is so incredible. The colouration and markings are so crisp and distinctive.
You can quite easily see the red eye spot towards the rear of the puffer which you never see on the adult suvattii. I would be very interested to know why this eye spot disappears when they mature. This is unlike most species of puffer that still exhibit their eye spot into adulthood.
