    Default Dogfish???

    We have a dogfish anyone else have one? Ours seems not to be able to see good he bumps in to things a lot. I.e. the overflow box;heater; anything in its way. Is this their nature or our ours just blind? It's funny to watch but I do feel sorry for him.
    Thanks so much

    Looks like a stars and stripes puffer to me!

    "Dogface" puffers are typically white with a little bit of yellow, and so ugly they're cute.

    We have a large porky and he can see just fine. In fact, my son was trying to get him to eat his sucker last night. The puffer was chasing him back and forth as my son ran side to side. No, my son was not in the tank.

    At the Vance Jackson store and reefs 2 go they call him a dog face so that's what I was going by. New to this stuff so they may be bull****ting me but it does look kinda like a dog.
    Thanks so much
