7/14/2023 0 Comments Big puffer fish![]() ![]() They have many common names which can lead to confusion and may lead to some buyers obtaining the wrong species so generally I prefer to search for this fish by its Latin classification to rule out any false identity, common names include the fresh water puffer fish, Mbu puffer, giant puffer and also the Giant green puffer. In the wild the Tetraodon mbu are found in large expanses of water on the African continent, they are mostly to be found in areas of the large river basins of the Congo river and surprisingly to many people they can also be found in Lake Tanganyika sharing their environment with well known species of fish such as the African cichlids and catfish. Hopefully the following article will help to explain how to care for these wonderful creatures and how to care for Tetraodon mbu correctly. Sadly this species of puffer fish are often sold in the aquatic stores as juveniles without prospective purchasers realising their full growth potential ( some specimens can reach up to 30” ~76,2 cm in length), and this can also lead to being given incorrect information as to their full requirements for a trouble free life. Tetraodon mbu is no exception to this rule but as they are capable of growing very large, they do demand very large aquariums so should only be housed by keepers with not only ample knowledge but also the correct facilities to care for them properly. Most of the species have those appealing eyes that often remind keepers of a puppy face and indeed they can develop a strong bond with their owner making them a much loved pet that are treated with care and if kept under the proper conditions will lead long and happy lives. Puffer fish are a unique family of fish that have their own characteristics and appeal making them loved by their owners in the same respect as a family dog or cat.
