Hi guys, I came across this puffer on youtube and I was wondering if anybody was familiar with it. In the description, it is described as a freshwater/brackish puffer, but I've never seen this species before. Thanks in advance.

 
I was kind of thinking the same thing. I've seen orange saddle fugu puffers before and the shape and high activity level of these fish reminded me of one. They probably are in the Takifugu genus. Thanks, that gives me a good starting point for my search.

Hard to say look like the ones from India. Maybe Fat Homer Fat Homer knows.

I'm almost sure someone posted a similar video a few years back and it was thought to be one of the takifugu...
 
Looks to be the same in the thread.
