jimbob Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 cool puffer, looks like the one in your link, i dont know much about puffers other than my 2 green spotted puffers sorry. congrats on finding a nice fresh water puffer tho! very similar to http://www.thepufferforum.com/forum/ug.php/v/PufferPedia/Freshwater/T_Cochinchinensis/ apparently part of the 'target' group of puffers which look the same and are often sold as the same fish.

henward Posted October 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 http://www.pufferlist.com/puffer/freshp ... ?puffid=19 Tetraodon turgidus if i could say, it looks almost if not identical to this one definately when i saw the dots close to tail, it was that. cant miss it, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidb Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 from your (shocking) pics I would be tempted to say Carinotetraodon borneensis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henward Posted October 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 the pufferforum all of them basically voted its a Tetraodon turgidus http://www.pufferlist.com/puffer/freshp ... ?puffid=19 this looks exactly like it even has the distinct huge dots both sides close to its tail colouration is almost identical if not so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
