fugu puffer

[rallysman]

I was at a LFS that had puffers labled as fugu puffers.....the only thing i know is that they looked awesome. they were a dark color with really bright orange patterns on them. How big of a tank do I need to keep one, how do I set up that tank, and how do you care for these fish. Ive never done a serious brackish tank before so a step by step would be nice! thanks in advance

I wont be going down that road then...What kind of puffers would everyone suggest for a 20 tall, and how should I set it up? im new to anything that has salt./ I was thinking a couple dwarf puffers and some mollies.

No mollies

Try a Bronze Puffer...also known as an Avocado Puffer. My roommate used to have one and it was definitely a cool fish with lots of personality.

If you want completely freshwater, don't get Figure 8 Puffers, Green Spotted Puffers, or Takifugus. If you still want a takifugu, yunachin has one.

Auriglobus Silus.

The bronze puffer = Auriglobus Modestus
The golden puffer = Auriglobus Silus

I've had both.
