To vote yes would be irresponsible. Even though they are really cool, it needs it's own cycled tank and unless you have that (now), I would not suggest getting this fish.
To vote no would be hypocritical. I know if I found a miurus, I would be quick to bring it home. It would be a shame to miss out on a great opportunity. Difference is, I have tanks I can shuffle so that this puffer has it's own personal tank.
In the end, I think the tank should always come before the fish...
Yup... I've got 18g and a 25g quarantine tanks, both of which can be cleared out for a new resident. Wouldn't have considered it otherwise...

Then that's good. If you still want one, I would get the tank all set up and cycled. You can make it miurus (burrowing) friendly too. Just be completely prepared for when they get one in, ya know?
