I knew about the bycon which is the same size as this beast, but I did not know about the FUGUS habbits, I just picked him up today at shark aquarium, he's actually a bit over 9 inches, AND REAL THICK, a real beast, and I have no where to put the bycon... so for now I'm gonna camp out by the tank lol, THANKS brother...

The Shark Aquarium had a nice collection of those fish and as fortune or bad luck, would have it, I now have a free 80 gallon long tank. That equates to 6feet of swimming room for some lucky fish. I was actually thinking about buying one of those puffers. One in particular was very interactive with me, so cute, I think he wanted to kiss my finger through the glass.

I can't wait to get him home. The first thing I'll do is saturate my hand with shrimp odor and put it in the tank so he can kiss my fingers.

BTW, disregard my signature, ALL of my brackish fish died because there was a dead eel hidden in one of the ornaments. :cry:

my guy has been acting sluggish, and woozy, it's weird...He still eats though, I just moved him out of the tank with the bycon that was in there, maybe the bycon was stressing him, can anyone shed any light on this situation...thanks

is he in pure fresh water right now? I work at a pet shop in the evenings and on observation alone I would say they do better in sw or at least a brackish set up. we have kept them in pure fresh and they live, but I personally think they are better with salt
