    My spouse set up a fish tank last week. On a recent walmart trip she purchased a puffer fish. It is greenish in color with lots of spots. That little guy is driving her and all its tank mates nuts. It loves to nip fins. She wants it gone. We are in northwest Houston.

      Does it look like this?



      If so, it's a fish that needs brackish to full saltwater.

        Please do your research. Puffers are largely antisocial and often require their own tank. As MB pointed out alot of them need to be acclimated to brackish/full saltwater in later life. They are not the easiest fish to keep so be sure you know what you are getting in to.

            Maybe put a thread up in the "free stuff" forum under "the marketplace". If no one takes him (I wish I had a spare tank for him), maybe you could sell him to a fish store.
            Trogdor was a man. Or maybe he was a dragon man. Or maybe he was just a dragon. But he was still TROGDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!

            You know, fish are great. I love my fish. But what I really want is a monkey.

              Thanks! I didn't even notice this was in the Puffer forum. It has been moved. :)

                Green Spotted puffer. Brackish water while young, full salt when older. Aquarium World off of 290 and Hollister will give you a fish credit for it. It won't be what you paid for it but if you cannot find a taker it is a good option.

                  I would take it but I don't want to go to Northwest Houston to get it. Not worth the $5 I can go get one for myself at Walmart.
