Southern Puffer
Scientific Name: Sphoeroides nephelus
Maximum Length: Around 6–10 inches
Favorite Things: Spacious tanks with plenty of rockwork, open swimming room, and stable marine water parameters. Southern Puffers are alert, intelligent, and interactive fish that quickly learn to recognize their keeper. They require a varied meaty diet—frozen shrimp, clams, squid, and hard-shelled foods to help keep their beaks worn down.
Best Buddies: Best kept with larger, non-aggressive tankmates. Will nip fins and will eat inverts, so they’re not reef-safe. Keep a secure lid, as puffers are known to jump when startled.
