I took these pictures of a puffer at a restaurant the other day. He's so cute, I want him! I know he's a salt water, because he was in with a blue tang and some clown fish along with other salties. I can't get a salt water tank anytime soon, but i was wondering if and when, I could get one like him.

It looks like a spiny box puffer.

They need at least 70 gallons, it gets to be 10 inches, and it is not reef safe.
Hope that helps!

Oh, yeah you're right, thanks. I think if I ever do get a salt water, I would want a reef tank, so he might not be my best choice, oh well. Thank you!

Yep, he's a striped burrfish! Or box puffer, or whateva... lol
They are really an advanced fish... alot harder to keep than most other puffers.
And 70 gallons seems quite a bit on the small side to me...
