Tetraodon nigroviridis bred on the commercial scale

I'm surprised not to see any discussion of this yet. Heres the link to the article: http://news.ufl.edu/2009/02/17/puffer-fish/

Theres also an article in this months issue of TFH, with some decent photos.

I was floored when I read about this. I was at a pet store and was randomly flipping through the magazine when I came across the TFH article.

Anyway, I think it is phenomenal that we will be getting tank raised GSPs. In the TFH article, Craig Watson hinted at the possibility of research on other puffer species too...which has me excited.

We had a discussion at IMAC about it and yes it's pretty cool. Personally I'd like to see more proper breeding of fish.
