I picked this guy up at my LFS today, and I can't seem to find any concrete info on it... Can anyone help me ID this target?

T. cochinchinensis? Looks like a red eye to me.

There are a few species (target) that has red eyes. I think it maybe conchinchinensis IF the spot turns red (the bigger one near the tail. If not maybe a turgidus or cutcutia.

I don't think it is T. cochinchinensis...the spot would be red. It looks like a Turgidis to me.

well, you probably already knew this, but its definitely a target puffer LOL.

i would say Turgidus or Chochinchinensis.

I think it as a Tetraodon Cochinchinensis.
