I wasn't aware that there were so many different species of puffers out there.

My favorite,of the species that I do know of is the little avocado puffer.
Just to put into perspective how many puffers there really are...
If you like Auriglobus modestus, the avocado puffer, you may also like...
Auriglobus nefastus, the greenbottle puffer,
Auriglobus silus, the elongated golden puffer,
Auriglobus amabilis, the lovely golden puffer,
or Auriglobus remotus-- No pics available.
Does that not cut it for you? Then try the genus Chonerhinos, full of its own distinct species that look very similar to Auriglobus.
And that's only 1 (RELATIVELY SMALL) genus, with the addition of 1 very similar species from another genus.

Yes,some of the Auriglobus puffers remind me of little triggerfish due to their bodyshape and movements.
It seems these guys go in an out of availability, i saw 5 at a store once for $19.00 each. regret not scooping the whole lot.
Triggers are the only reason i experimented with SW. favorites would be blue throat, fusco's & Balistes Punctatus and obviously clowns
One shop in South Jersey used to have them almost everytime I stopped by.I haven't been there in some time though.
Triggers are awesome,I've kept a few different species back when I was into saltwater.
I’ve pasted in the listing from 2019.
To be honest the world is a different place after the last two years and this fish is so rare that there is no market bearing rate. It’s whatever the seller wants to ask for the fish
