Canthigaster Bennetti pairs

Post by bonnie3188 »

Hi guys,

I went to a not so LFS today and was surprised to find TWO PAIRS of Canthigaster Bennetti's! They were labelled 'Blue line puffers'. One of the pairs didn't look so healthy; one was scratching against the substrate a lot. The healthy pair was so cute though- they were sort of hanging out together and doing the 'look at me' dance together against the glass. They looked quite naughty though, I put one of my fingers against the glass and they both swarmed around trying to eat it!

Just thought I would share my experience, Ive never seen puffer pairs in an LFS before! They were also really cheap and if I had a spare tank they wouldve been in it in a flash! There was also an extremely cute Porcupine puffer that was crying out to me, but would destroy my reef in less than an hour.

Anyone else seen puffer pairs before?'
