Arothron Pufferfish should be added to well established large aquariums with plenty of room to swim. Puffers do "puff up" if they feel threatened. Plenty of rock work should be provided with caves, cracks and crevices. Arothron Puffers are not reef safe, they will disturb and will consume invertebrates. A varied diet of larger meaty foods including hard shell shrimp in order to wear down their teeth. Care will need to be taken when handling as Pufferfish tend to become quite alarmed, the use of a container is highly recommended. Pufferfish are intelligent and have a wonderful personality, they will make a great addition to large fish only aquariums.
