Hi all

Me and my other half have just added a mbu puffer to our tank.

He is only a baby (approx 3/4 inches)

He is amazing and excellent to watch

Any tips on feeding and care would be appreciated.

At the moment he is eating mussels.

Thanks

Hi where you from? What size tank are you keeping this monster in? Most of us can't accommodate a fish that gets so big. This beast can reach 30" and produces massive bio-load. 1000 gallon recommended.

At that size, I bet he's adorable!!! Got any pics of this baby?

An mbu is a size down from the fish described below, but do rememeber that 1000 gallons is the minimum tank size suggested. Several times that is better.
