The Puffer Forum

Looking for a fangs pufffer (tetraodon cochinchinensis). Preferably a juvenile. If anyone knows where I could get one please PM or email at k.k.george@hotmail.com.

Thanks

There's a puffer dealer right in TX, email him: oluwatoyinojo@yahoo.com

Does that guy also sell Congo puffers?

Puffers are seasonal. I got my red Congo from him about 5 years ago.

How much was yours including shipping?

I really don't remember for sure, it was 5 years ago but $50 seems to stand out in my mind. Not sure if that included shipping or now. I spoke to him last week & he didn't have any red Congos.

I think my was like $30, but then I got him in my LFS

I know a place where i can get one for $40 and shipped for another $40, but i think thats a bit much.

Shipping fish is $$$.

Amen. Paying the same price or more for shipping seems a bit ridiculous to me, but if a person really wants a certain fish there isn't much else to do.

Thank you! I'll be shooting him a email very soon. Thanks again.

There are two at OC Tropical Fish in Lake Forest Ca. The owner could probably ship them.

He feeds them frozen hikari freshwater shrimp (new product he is testing, designed for puffers per the HIkari sales guy). Hikari cichlid pellets and bloodworms. Very active and they are not aggressive to each other at all.

i live 5 minutes from the lfs in lake forest, i might have to go make a few trades =) i love congos

Let the owner know, he can probably get you one. I love my little fangs but a Congo would be sweet!

I talked to chris (owner) earlier, were gonna work out a trade between some of my fish and a congo puffer. hopefully a red or white, but any colour will work.
