It's a Girl! Meet Princess Pauline

;D I am in love! I want everyone to meet Princess Pauline the porcupine puffer. She is at the local fish store in quarantine. I will be bringing her home on Feb. 13th. I can't wait to get my baby girl home. The pictures are not very good but it's the best I could do. She has blue eyes and is about 3-3.5 inches long. And she is extremely adorable!

 

I love porkies. I had one at the lfs that I work part time at that used to try to eat my fingernails whenever I put my hands in its tank. I was sad when it was sold

 

Very cute....

 

i just love puffers,i wish i could have one in my reef.

 

Reminds me of being down in baja mexico. My friend and I where down there about 8 years ago and decided to bring stuff back. We got some frags of bright yellow porites cylindrica and some pocillipora (no acros or montis down there) Some brittle stars and cukes. We noticed a nice little puffer following use along the bank (we did our collecting in about 3 ft of water) She followed us for a good hour and we thought, why not we might be able to catch her. Turned around with a big plastic bag, she swam right in and next thing she knew she was on a flight to the states. She is still doing well in my friends tank

 

Congrats on your new baby girl and good luck with her.;D

 

The last Brackish fish I had was green puffers and I really enjoyed having them. They are really what got me into sw because as adults they require marine like conditions so I just changed over to accommodate them.

Congrats on the score!

 

Congrats

 

What a cute "Princess"

Any hazards in keeping in general reef tank?
