Bullseye Puffer Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Bullseye Puffer in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: advanced
• Temperament: aggressive
• Diet: carnivore
• Minimum tank size: 120 gallons (450 liters)
• Compatibility: Best kept in a species-specific tank or with very robust, fast-moving, and similarly sized fish that can withstand its aggressive nature and fin-nipping tendencies. Not suitable for reef tanks due to its predatory nature on invertebrates.
• Special requirements: Requires a well-established aquarium with excellent filtration due to its messy eating habits. Plenty of rockwork and hiding places are essential. Needs a varied diet of meaty foods to maintain health and prevent aggression. Regular dental care (trimming teeth) may be necessary as their teeth grow continuously.
