Description

This listing is for one puffer fish, I have more available at the winning bid price. The figure 8 puffer originates in the brackish (partial salinity) streams and estuaries of Southeast Asia, including Borneo, the Malaysian peninsula, Sumatra, and Thailand. These fish do not breed in captivity. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BRACKISH WATER SETUP!!! Reaching an adult size of fewer than three inches, Figure 8 puffers are small for pufferfish. They are deep brown in color on the upper portion of the body with white on the underside. Yellow spots and lines are sprinkled throughout the body. The name is derived from the markings on the back of the fish, many of which resemble the shape of a figure 8. Even when not startled, all figure 8 puffers have a roly-poly appearance; you can easily spot a well-fed puffer by its rounded belly. Puffers have two pairs of teeth, each of which is fused together, giving it a beak-like appearance. This unusual arrangement of teeth gives it the ability to crush hard materials such as the shells of crustaceans. These teeth grow throughout the life of the fish and must get ground down to keep them from being too long. For this reason it is good to offer hard shelled foods like snails. I will be sending a starter pack of feeder snails along with the puffer fish, these snails can be placed in a seperate tank and will breed giving you a steady food supply for your new puffer.Puffers are not well suited to a community tank because they tend to be aggressive. Ideally, figure 8 puffers should be kept alone or in a large aquarium with only a few other fish that thrive in the same partial-salinity habitat. Owners who have kept them in brackish water find that bumblebee gobies, knight gobies, and mollies are suitable companions. Owners keeping them in freshwater aquariums have reported keeping them with fish such as barbs, "sharks," and tetras. As a rule of thumb, don�t expect to successfully keep them in a typical freshwater community tank.
