Pea Puffers?

[MarAzul]

So LFS got some 'pea puffers' in a few days ago. The only thing I got from
google was stuff I already knew.. Dwarf puffer, only gets to be about 1-1.5
inches. LFS says are good for community tanks, but saw conflicting info on a
webpage... Help! Anyone have any info?

I've never had a Pea Puffer, but IME, most puffers tend to be aggressive, or
at the very least, will eat anything that they can fit in their mouth.

Well, at present, their mouths are maybe a tad bigger than the head of a
pin, so I don't think that would be a problem. :)

However, the end of most fish's fins would likely fit in there.<g>

Annoyingly, where actual fish food is concerned my dwarf puffer
refuses to eat anything except frozen bloodworm.
