Default Anyone want to adopt a big puffer?

Anyone in So Cal want to adopt a porcupine puffer that is about 6-7" long? Great peronality, like long walks in the tank...lol

My wife will kill me if she knew I was writing this beacuase she loves him, but I want to get the reef going at some point so I think puffer has to go. Sounds dumb, but he is like a pet, you can even pet him. Needs a bigger tank than I have.

O there is a pic on the site, looks nice. Ill see what he thinks.

I was wondering how long that would last before you went with a reef tank. See you are an addict just like the rest of us...hahaha
As another person quoted which made me chuckle"WARNING; Driver carries no money...I have a REEF tank!!!!!!!!
Best of luck and you wont regret your decision to convert to a reef.
Just get your wife some flowers, or a coffee mug with a picture of a Porcupine Puffer on it, or tee shirt. That should suffice...no?
