Edit - Sorry it's been awhile I didnt realize there was a puffer forum. If a mod could please move :(

Hey all, been a long time since Ive posted. Got back into the hobby in a small way this is my Fang's Puffer or Tetraodon cochinchinensis. Max size is about 3-4 inches, cant have any other tank mates due to how aggressive they are. Have him in a 20 gallon he eats crab, snails, craw and shrimp. They like to snipe their prey they hang back move slow and do VERY fast and accurate strike for the kill :)

Full fresh water and they have very intelligent personalities, much like certain cichlid species.

My old figure 8 used to swim around like he owned the tank, when my oscar got a bit too close my puffer used to charge at him head first, he was a mentalist.
