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.
