I saw a puffer at the LFS today marked as this. I can't find it anywhere on the web. I would like to know more about this fish. Sorry I don't have any pics.

Narrow line was the closest match I can find on web. Almost identical, but the fish I saw seems greener. Like the belly of the puffer in "the puffer forum" logo, for the main body color, but with the shape of the narrow line's body and its pattern.

Perhaps A. manilensis, as noted above. A picture would be good idea...

it may have been a young fish. It was about 4"-5". A bit bigger than my GSP is now.
