Porcupine puffers are completely saltwater.
And this is at a city aquarium somewhere.

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?

100 gallons. They get 1 1/2 to 2 feet long.
Yep, they can all puff.

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.

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

We know fish do pass gas for a fact

With a puffer it's more likely that he had ingested some air, because that's how they 'deflate', whether with water or air. But it could be gas as well. Lol!

That was great! He looked like he was releasing natural gas! But he is asking for trouble! I bet the tank would smell and his fish friends would try to get away from the stench!
