What a cute puffer! I tried to do a search online but couldn't really find anything. What if you asked one of your LFS to order you one? They would probably know where to get one.
 
Just to let you know, expect to do dentistry on them every 4-6 months.

i dont have a digi camera or i would. mine is pretty small, he is housed in a 20 gallon with a pair of fig 8 puffers. water is lower end brackish - around 1.007.

fwiw, he looks exactly like the picture. bought him as an asellus puffer.
 
It seems that you'd have to be able to have a daily supply of snails & be able to feed them about 10/day. Pretty hard to find them exactly the right size in that quantity.
