Takifugu ocellatus are messy eaters so you should have an overcapacity filter on their tank to remove unwanted pollutants and ensure water quality. They enjoy burrowing into the sand where they can easily hide and ambush their prey and because they are fast swimmers and easily startled, they need plenty of swimming room.
The Orange Saddle Fugu Puffer requires a large, heavily brackish to salt water aquarium with a fine sandy substrate and some rockwork, preferably live rock and plenty of swimming space. Gender differentiation is difficult if not impossible but during breeding season, the bellies of the female are larger than the males. There is also a black dot outlined with orange to yellow about the dorsal fin of the fish. Just above and behind the pectoral fins, there are two thick black dots outlined in orange to yellow that are connected to each other by a thin line over the back. The Orange Saddle Fugu Puffer has an olive green back, a white belly and orange eyes. Salinity: 1.010-1.024 (later in life seawater) Native to: Asia, primarily China & Vietnam
