Abes puffer

[fadetoblack06]

So I have some one that wants to trade my Abie puffer for a 10" african lung fish. What do you guys think? I have a 55 gallon tank and I wanted to change over to saltwater and I think these guys get really big and would need something much larger.

Do you mean Abie Puffer?

I like puffers more. Tank on the small side for a lung fish.

Yes. He ate one of my angels I think, unless it died and then was eaten.

Here is the guy, now that I think of it too, I have a 12" spotted eel that may have taken him out too, I dont know which one did it now.

I don't think its an Abie Puffer. It looks like a monetrete turgidus puffer. I can tell by the patterns above its eyes. It looks exactly like my turgidus :d. Abie also have longer snouts.

Nowadays, Turgidus in the USA are selling as "Mekong" puffer or "Black River" puffer.
