About the Red Miurus Pufferfish
  • Scientific Name: Tetraodon miurus.
  • Appearance: They can display a range of colors, including vibrant red, orange, and brown, allowing them to camouflage with their surroundings. They have a compact, potato-like body shape.
  • Hunting Behavior: This is an ambush predator that buries itself in the sand, waiting for prey to come near before launching a fast, powerful strike.
  • Habitat: This freshwater fish is native to the Congo River Basin in Central Africa. 

Aquarium Care
  • Tank Mates: Due to its aggressive and territorial nature, it is best kept in a species-only tank.
  • Tank Requirements: A tank with a deep, fine-sand substrate is essential to allow the puffer to exhibit its natural behavior of burying itself.
  • Diet: Its diet should consist of protein-rich foods, including snails, shrimp, and crustaceans.
