I want to but an emp angel gets pretty big. Also I was looking at some cool inverts. Only other puff I want is a hairy. I like not having to worry about hard shelled foods all the time.

Ive had the puffer for some years now, was ordered from Wet Spot in Portland
Upload your videos on YouTube then copy+paste the link into a forum post to share it. Loving the puffer colour! 
I acquired a pair about 6 months ago and just combined them (accidentally - one jumped the divider). I have several species of freshwater pufferfish and these are by far my favorite. One has more barbels than the other so I am hoping I have a pair. The only time they bicker is when they both grab a mealworm at the same time, which only results in the mealworm being torn in two. The male (more hairy) is very outgoing of the two and begs to be fed a lot. I’m really glad they didn’t kill each other...
The amount of hair is not a great determination of sex. Mine is quite hairy and is female. I know for sure because she has dropped eggs before.
This is a really pleasant surprise
When i clicked on the thread and saw the first post was back in 2014, i thought, someone just revived an old thread, but after reading this last post i am very happy i went through the thread and the puffer still being there with you.
I have been keeping one for almost an year now, and i want to ask a few questions as you have good experience with this one.
Mine when new was a very very active specimen constantly running around the front pane the moment i was in the fish room, now just hides under a piece of driftwood, eats once or twice in a week, although would eat crabs eveytime if I put.
