You know I do and Green Spotted Puffer used to have one. That's the only ones I know about.

Yup, read all that before I bought the fish. Have been a big fan of wetwebmedia for years.

If my friend Richard doesn't set up a huge tank in the next couple of years to take home his fish, I'll be looking to upgrade to a 6' x 30" x 30" or 7' x 30" x 30" but in acrylic (too heavy otherwise) for a big fowlr.

Darryl, if you go to Live Aquaria there's a good side by side pic of the two varieties.

Mine's Indo too. Beautiful fish nonetheless. Couldn't afford an Aussie one anyways.

Mine is an Aussie. I paid the better part of $200 for him when he was about 4.5"' I don't know what the Indo's go for though. I find they are quite slow growers. Mine has probably only grown an inch in a year and a half and he eats like a pig.
