BLUE!!! Puffers....

[Yoji_嬰孩]

Anyone ever come across these guys?! I just came across this link from a friend of mine http://www.reefhotspot.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=3965

It says that they are characterized by blue and white spots accented by an ashen blue to navy blue background. They hail from the Sea of Cortez and have just started to become more available to the SW hobby. General care for it seems to be the same as any other puffer. Here are some pics I found of them:

The 1st is a Guineafowl puffer. they are more of a dark grey but can have a blueish tinge to it's skin. Certainly not as blue as those pics.

2nd looks like a mappa puffer. They are not blue. Bad photographing skills, IMO.

3rd is a common porcupine. Either the photographer doesn't know how to adjust their white balance or that puffer is dyed.
