The Puffer Forum

some pictures for you guys & gals

has anyone ever kept one of these? I'm close to upgrading my gsps to a 55g full marine and this would fit in my 30g brackish.

I dont think there caught in brackish waters. Currently in fresh.

They are BW fish though.

I found this

http://puffernet.tripod.com/erythrotaenia.html

the figure 8 does better in brackish even though its a fresh fish in the wild maybe this fish is the same

i was searching through here and i saw that one guy had one a few years back in BW. I thought i saw some more recent pics of one in here though, like three months or less. I couldn't find it though.

I might be gifting my GSPs to a friend and making the 55g a new home for my arrowhead and maybe getting a second one to be in there with him. So my thirty might be coming available very soon. PP are these really that rare of a puffer?

ohh yeah there rare ( not puffer punk but know enough to knwo this isnt a every day puffer )

I`ve got them in brackish water,and they are doing very well,not as much aggression as i thought there would be.

hello pufferheads.

just got hold of four (2 male and 2 female) of these puffers here i Norway. the males have a much darker belly than the girls. pictures will come in a day or two.

the currently live in fresh water.

Here`s a few of the crew deconstructing some lancefish.

I wouldn't believe anything you read at Puffernet. It is known for bad info.

What a cutie! Good luck with your new Puffer, not much is known about this species.

Hello Martin,

http://www.reptilien-zierfische.de seems to have them (confirming per phone call would be a good idea). The company is in the Czech republic, but delivers to Germany as far as I know for a minimum order of 75 Euros. I have never ordered from them, though.
