The Puffer Forum

That looks to be a Palembangensis. Long story short, freshwater lurker species, needs about 40 gallons/150 liters. Since their natural diet in the wild is fish, they will generally kill and eat any tankmates. Some people have had luck keeping them with their own species, but with LOTS of room in the tank for each fish.

Hope that helped!

Very pretty puffer, though!

Yep gorgeous fish indeed and Palembang for sure

I had one for a little while but on my way to cali from north carolina my tank busted in my car and had to sell him in tennessee somewhere. Anyway they are fun to watch and live in caves. Mostly active at night and eats crayfish brutally. love ghostshrimp too.

I'm moving this to the freshwater puffer section.

i love humpback puffers!

this one is nice and fat!!! beautiful fish
