Hallo ,
I´m searching for Tetraodon duboisi from the Congo.

And English George's is the first live import I have seen reported in years. That area has not been a collection site since the troubles well over a decade ago. Maybe things are better now.

And maybe, just maybe, T.schoutedeni will reappear!

to live, to dream, to puff.

Is schoutedeni the holy grail?

right up there with keeping the takifugu ocellatus alive for long term periods(years or normal lifespan).

its a puffer keepers dream to have a thriving one. and to even find a schoutedeni at all. they may be extinct for all we know(probably not, but possible) its nigh impossible to got to their areas with the wars and guerilla groups, and none have been seen for a very long time in any pet trade.

Pustulatus is up there on the holy grail of puffer lists, as well. At least for me.
As well as C. salivator. So, if anyone sees those in my area, be sure to let me know :wink:
