With the Tetraodon Duboisi coming in, I need to make space for it, so unfortunately this would mean that I need to sell my Congo Puffer :cry: he was a very good little guy, eating bloodworms like crazy. I need to have him gone on January 17, if you are interested please let me know, send me an email at adam.safiullah@aol.com.

I don’t see it! Omg will you ship? This is the color morph I have been looking for, is he marbled grey and beige?!? I live all the way in Wa, but will happily pay for packaging materials and shipping. If not I understand, puffs are sensitive.

I just found your add, I see you’re not wanting to ship. I must say- I have NEVER seen this coloration. My God what a beauty. Can we make a deal? If you don’t sell him by spring can we talk? I really am blown away by such a beautiful Murius... and have always wanted one. I currently have a couple pea puffers, a Cochin, and a palembangis, so I am not new to puffers or lurker species. I just beg you keep it in mind... if you still have him in spring when it warms up🙏

Yeah I will keep you in mind and we can make a deal, but I really want to sell him as soon as possible, but if you can find someone or a fish store that you know that can help get this puffer to you.

With it being cold, you just have to add a heat pack or two to the box and overnight it to her, I’ve shipped puffers once so I can help you

Thanks, right now in Delaware there is a blizzard going on and a lot of flights being cancelled, but if you can help me ship then it would be great help.

I can only imagine the weather in Delaware, we usually get rain but got an evening of snow on Christmas Eve! Back to the rain now, but I know the heat packs will be most functional and necessary for the first half of the trip where it’s freezing still!

How long have you had this sweet boy, any guess on his age? Is there any eating or social behavior that may may need to be facilitated (beyond their need for sand to allow for their burrowing ‘ambush predator’ nature)? Congrats on your new puffer btw, I can see you have a taste for the rare ones! Did you find your miurus at a shop? I have only seen a grey/beige marbled color morph once, never all white! Beyond that, reds and browns are all that’s been available on the west coast.

Halda - Sure I will message you on Facebook.

Bleedingheartmommy - I got this little guy from the Divers Den on liveaquaria, he is the best Puffer I have ever had, did have 2 red Congo’s before, but they did not survive well for me at all because they would die within 2 weeks, I have had this one since June, 2017 and gave him a name which is Kong lol I think that it fits his name. Right now he is living with 2 plecos and a Schoutedeni Puffer and does not bother them at all, and he is also interactive as well and comes up to search for food. A really cute little guy, still sad to sell him and I do hope you take good care of him if you still want him. I would reconsider my decision on shipping and can get this puffer to you.
