Comments

A freshwater puffer that can grow to over 2 feet long. The giant puffer is very aggressive towards its own kind and because of its size, it requires a large tank. However, there are reports of it being successfully kept with peaceful smaller fishes. The giant puffer is very rare in the market and is usually very expensive.
