Very beautiful fish and amazing to interact with. It arrived a bit small, though around 0.8mm

I have always struggled to find dwarf/pea puffers in good health – most are wild caught and come in with disease. I decided to order from McMerwe because I know they quarantine their fish. The fish arrived in absolutely perfect health with zero deaths, were already de-wormed and 5 months later every one of them are still alive and in good health.
