freshwater fish - tetraodon biocellatus - figure 8 puffer stocking in 46 gallons tank - Puffer....before you say anything. I know he's brackish, and he's been around for 6 months plus. I keep the salt a little high, not too high tho. He does well with the cichlids. no one bothers with him.

This guy does look like a Venustus. I have read that they get to be over a foot long. Just trying to help out a fellow African keeper.

Hi there, that looks like a Nimbochromis Venustus to me. I have one, check mine out if you get a chance. Do you have that puffer in with your cichlids? What kind is he?
