Bought this puffer for my 100-gallon tank. It’s active and curious, though it does need a secure environment. The size is impressive, and it’s not overly aggressive with other fish. Only issue is it requires a lot of space and a well-maintained setup.

The puffer arrived healthy and has been adjusting well. It’s not a beginner-friendly species, but once you understand its needs, it’s a fascinating addition. I keep it alone to avoid conflicts with other fish.

It’s a large puffer and takes time to settle. I’m not sure it’s right for a smaller tank. The care level is intermediate, and I’ve had to monitor water parameters closely.
