Diodon sp

Care Level - Intermediate
Disposition - Semi-aggressive
Min. Tank Size - 75 gallons
Mature Size - 20 inches 

This approximately 6.5-inch specimen offers a distinctive look at a pelagic porcupine puffer, identified as Diodon sp. Porcupine puffers are known for their expressive faces and protective spines, which they can raise when stressed or threatened. Allow time for acclimation and provide open swimming space, sturdy décor, and a secure aquarium cover. Offer a varied, appropriately sized marine diet that includes hard-shelled foods to help wear down the continuously growing teeth. Handle and transport gently, and avoid provoking inflation, which is a defensive response rather than a behavior to encourage.
