A friend had him hanging in his hobby shop for the last 20 yrs. Been bugging him to sell it to me all that time, he finally caved in and sold it to me yesterday.

That's an awesome piece!

Guess its not happy being outside the water and hence puffed up ;)

Those Kessils look hot on your tank. Very nice colour that tuna blue.

I'd be a little worried about that puffer falling on my head! Looks cool though :-)

yeah, his spines are really sharp and pointy. I've always wanted a stuffed puffer, but everytime I go on vacation now, never see them for sale at local markets. In the old days, used to see them everywhere. I guess cites includes "dead fish" lol

I got mine from SF in 2002 & the Van. Aquarium back in the 80s. Don't take this the wrong way but "Your's is huge!":lol:
