Bad news he died last night. I didnt think he was going to make he was pretty messed up.

The moray has never bugged either of them before and I have had both for over two years. The pufferfish Bulletsworld found is not what I have. The name is Tetraodon nigroviridis. It is a brackish fish that needs salt water once it reaches adulthood. Google the word and you will find some info.

My condolences buddy, I just lost one of mine own recently.

For the record
Tetraodon nigroviridis AKA Green spotted puffer.
Carinotetraodon travancoricus or Carinotetraodon imitator AKA Dwarf puffer
Tiny little guys that are only about 1 inch full grown.

Tetraodon nigrividis is not a dwarf puffer. It is a green spotted puffer that grows to about 6 inches as adult and requires marine condition.

The real pure 100 percent FW is the Carinotetraodon travancoricus.
It does not live in brackish condition at all. It is a dwarf species from India (I think).

My info came from the thepufferforum.com and dwarfpuffer.com
