Do they attack ur puffer??

[mestupidcat]

No. The pacus never messed with the puffer. These are vegetarians. Some younger pacu go for small fish though.

looks more like arrowhead puffer

[mestupidcat]

Yes, that's what he is.. a tetraodon suvatti. There's a really good article of them on the net, like 3 pages long; helped me out a lot when I had him. :) This may have been before I knew much about him (also goes by pig-nosed puffer).

dwarf puffer fish

@antdaweeze13 The fish is commonly called a pignose or pigface puffer. The pet store called it a snakehead puffer.. The scientific name (in case you want to research) is tetraodon suvatti.

@ldvickers321 Why don't you ask before you comment? I actually got these from a person who did exactly what you said. They bought pacu b/c they look like piranha.. The fish outgrew their 20 gallon, so I bought a 55 gallon to keep them. After they outgrew my 55 gallon, I split them into pairs and rehomed them to bigger tanks. Thank you for calling me selfish for taking care of the fish that weren't even mine!!

the guy who posted the video is retarded, there is no such thing as a snakehead pufferfish.

a- i'm a girl. kthx.

b- 5 years with a lifespan being about 25 years isn't exactly far.. they've grown, and gotten too big, and now they're going to slowly deteriorate.

c- when you posted the comment is completely irrelevant unless they've already died or your uncle put them in a pond. srsly.
