![]() Arothron Puffers will eat any invertebrates it finds in the aquarium. Tank Recommendations: Requires a large aquarium of at least 125 gallons or larger fish-only aquarium with a good protein skimmer, plenty of room at the bottom and a sandbed of at least two inches in depth. The Blue/White Arothron Puffer would exhibit this characteristic as only a last resort, because it would lose its total mobility. Forcing this fish to repeatedly puff may result in the death of this fish. It should not be exposed to air while puffing, as the ingested air is too tough to expel. When threatened or stressed, the The Blue/White Arothron Puffer has the quality of doubling its original size to protect itself from predators. Once it is fully adjusted to the aquarium it is a hardy fish that can do great in a large tank with bold fishes such as triggers, groupers and larger wrasse. Do not keep this in smaller tanks, it does not like confined spaces and will never adapt in such a situation. When first introduced into the aquarium this can be a somewhat shy species. Like all puffers instead of teeth, it has a fused beak structure which it uses it to crush its food. The Arothron is very maneuverable, even though it has no pelvic fins it moves about with the pectoral, dorsal and anal fins. Also called the Guinea Fowl Puffer, and the Blue Spotted Puffer, it is deep blue to black in color with white spots over its body. Puffers are generally hardy and do best in large tanks with lots of swimming space and some rocky décor for shelter.Ĭlick to view Video Male & Female Arothron Pufferĭescription: The Blue/White Arothron Puffer is the Female of the Arothron Puffers. Puffers vary in size – the smaller species only growing to 3 or 4 inches and the largest reaching over 2 feet in length. They have specialized teeth and powerful jaws that allow them to crush the hard shells of their prey. Puffers come from warmer ocean waters around the world where they feed mainly on crustaceans and mollusks. When kept in an aquarium, Puffers quickly adapt and recognize their owners and will always be “begging” for a meal. ![]() Although most Puffers are not very colorful, they make up for it with their character and personality. By rapidly swallowing water or air, they are able to expand their bodies up to 2 times their normal size in order to deter predators. You will not get these exact fish but one very similar and of the same size.Saltwater Puffers are comical looking fish, especially when they are “puffed up” and look like a ball with fins. The photos show a variety of different puffer fish I have sold in the past. Every year, people die from consumption of improperly prepared puffer fish! The skin and spines by themselves as preserved here are not poisonous, just weird looking. Yet the Japanese consider puffer fish to be a delicacy when properly prepared. It is estimated that one puffer fish can contain enough poison to kill 30 people. When alive, the flesh of the puffer fish is highly toxic due to tetrodotoxin, a poison that is 10 times more dangerous than cyanide. More types of puffer and puffer lamps available here: No fishy order, just a slight polyurethane smell if you hold the item close to your nose. The artificial eyes are placed where the real eyes once were. Artificial eyes have been attached to the sides of the face to add to the weird macabre look. There is a translucent wire with hanging loop attached to the top so it can be hung if desired. These are pretty big, about 7 to 10 inches long and 5-6 inches wide. Also they are natural items and often have minor imperfections like a few broken spines, a bent tail, etc, they undergo a lot of preparation and shipping and handling before they finally reach me so please don't expect perfect fish. For such a delicate looking thing, it is actually fairly strong and stiff and the spines will poke you but good if you don't handle it gently. If the gill areas near the fins are wide, those are also sometimes coated with black sealant. The interior meat has been removed though a cut along the topline of the fish that has then been stitched and sealed with black sealant to match the black spots on the fish. ![]() This taxidermy has been dried, stuffed, preserved, and sprayed with a protective coating. Translucent gossamer fins stick out to the side like ears. Sometimes the spines can reach over an inch long and its skin is covered with black blotches which are its natural coloring. This thing is pretty crazy looking taxidermi. These are stock photos, you will not receive this exact puffer fish but one very similar.
