I always wondered what makes a fish a balloon fish like a balloon texas or balloon fh. My not so lfs has lots of them in stock but I wanted to know what they were first before buying them.
 
Are you asking what the difference is between them and a regular breed, or how they got that way??
 
Typically people use selective breeding to bring out certain genetic characteristics, I'm sure thats the case with these fish as well.
