Canthigaster solandri (Spotted Sharpnose/Toby)
Posted: Wed Sep 12, 2007 3:01 pm
I have learned that when a solandri has an orange tail, it is a male.
They're also a little more aggressive than the Valentini's and like to pick off the LR.
I saw a full-grown one in our favorite LFS; he was about four or five inches and quite fat. I know fish don't usually grow exceptionally fast, but I wouldn't put any puffer in a small tank (less than 30 gallons), regardless of size. They love to roam and easily become restless.
More info to come!
