Nobody has any idea? with all the knowledge floating around out there, no one knows the answer to this question?


All I know about Puffers is when I first set up my tank, my son and his g/f thought it would be cool to buy me one.(dogfaced, real cute too) It ate my coral banded shrimp and back to the store it went........ Sorry I can't help ya here...
