How do porcupine pufferfish behave?
Pufferfish are actually very friendly and smart fish! Although, you have to be careful about what other fish you put in the tank. Puffers are carnivorous! They will eat other fish! But when it comes to people they are an awesome pet to have! They will learn to recognize you over time and actually show excitement when they see you! Sometimes you can actually pet them if they’ll let you! I have done it many times with my pufferfish! If your puffer does allow you to pet him wash you hands IMMEDIATELY after petting him! Their skin is very poisonous! If you forget to wash you hands and accidentally put your finger in your mouth later it can be harmful! Puffers are the second most poisonous animal in the world!
