Canthigaster leopardaThe Leopard Toby Puffer is a peaceful marine fish that is moderately easy to care for, making it a popular choice in the aquarium trade. They thrive in established aquariums with ample rock work arranged to create caves and crevices for resting. Since they are not reef-safe, they should be housed in fish-only tanks. Their diet should be varied, including frozen meaty foods such as brine shrimp, finely chopped fish, krill, clams, squid, and specially formulated carnivore foods. Occasionally, they should also be given prepared foods with vegetable matter. These puffers should be fed several small meals daily instead of one large meal. With an adult size of 3 inches, they are suitable for smaller aquariums. Leopard Toby Puffers are primarily off-white to tan, with numerous black or dark spots on their bodies and blue and yellow stripes on their snouts. They inhabit the Indo-West Pacific Ocean, living in caves on steep drop-offs up to 100 feet deep.
