Size of SAP

Post by bsplenden »

What is the average maximum size of the SAP in captivity?

I was looking at the PufferPedia and it mentioned 3" (7.5cm).

After reading through the article, I noticed that there is a link which points to Fish Base. The article in FishBase mentioned 14cm.

That is almost double of what is mentioned at our PufferPedia!

May I know which is the correct maximum size? Thanks.

The Fishbase data on length is erroneous,
Where's the fish? - Neptune

Thank you. Now I can do a proper estimate on the number of SAPs I can have in my tank. :D
