I posted last week that my porcupine puffer had gone off food and Igot no
response on how to entice him to eat. I talked to a respected LFS owner
yesterday (20+ years with salt water). He said that a tank raised
porcupine will reach 6 - 8" and then quit eating and ultimately die. He
said there seems to be something lacking as they grow up in the tank. He
said the valutian lion aslo has this same problem. He went on to say that
if you get a porcupine or lion that is 6-8" when it is wild caught it
will continue to grow and thrive in captivity. He said he has seen this
happen several times.
