Puffer fish

Finally, my local fish store notified me that they expect to get in a shipment of red eye puffers today. I've been looking for these rare freshwater puffers for some time now and am looking forward to picking up a male and female pair.

Carinotetraodon irrubesco is the scientific name of these fish and they are one of the few true freshwater puffers available in the hobby. Unlike other puffer fish, as far as I am aware of at least, there is little controversy and discussion about their salinity levels.

Hopefully I'll have some pictures soon.
