My freind has one, and it gobbles up everything and grows big.
But all in all, it is a typical puffer fish, inquisitive and gentle but not one to let you finger by! they have sharp teeth! | I agree except the not very active part. Mine swims all around all day long. doesn't hide, not shy at all, one of the bigger fish in the tank. he definitely holds his own i have a big gold banded maroon clown which is the only fish that gives the dog problems, he rams him over and over but dog acts like nothings happening. also depends on if tank raised or caught from wild. huge difference in temperment. If he's not big enough now, one day he will be the boss in your tank. Lots of personality, you can hand feed em, and they eat alot (I feed mine silversides, but he eats any food that goes in the tank), and definitely watch your fingers cause it hurts. Also watch your snails and crabs until you figure him out cause if he's eaten them before he'll clean you out. And watch his teeth cause they never stop growing and if he doesn't have anything hard to bite (like snails or crabs) they get too big and you'll have to file them down or he'll start rubbing them on the glass and scratch your tank up or not be able to eat and die.
