Matt

LOL. It really does look like he is farting

is he in a complete saltwater tank coz i could swear i saw a naso tang in there or was i mistaken?

Porcupine puffers are completely saltwater.

And this is at a city aquarium somewhere.

Matt

Oh, LOL my bad. How much water do they need like whats the min tank size?

Puffers are really interesting creatures. Do puffers actually puff or is it just a name?

pinkfloydpuffer

100 gallons. They get 1 1/2 to 2 feet long.

Yep, they can all puff.

Matt

Ok thanks. Do they puff when you catch them in the net?

pinkfloydpuffer

Matt

it is not recommended to catch a puffer in a net because it might 'puff' air and not be able to expel it. It is better to catch it in a bag or cup.

Matt

Its Alright. How are your puffers doing?

Matt

Oh ok thanks angel

pinkfloydpuffer

Yes, you can 'catch' it in the net, but din't bring it out of the water in the net

They're doing well thanks.
