Pufferfish can inflate into a ball shape to evade predators. Also known as blowfish, these clumsy swimmers fill their elastic stomachs with huge amounts of water (and sometimes air) and blow themselves up to several times their normal size.

Some species also have spines on their skin to ward off predators. Even if a predator gobbles up a puffer before it inflates, it won't enjoy the snack. Most pufferfish contain a toxic substance that makes them foul tasting and potentially deadly to other fish. The toxin is deadly to humans. There is enough poison in one pufferfish to kill 30 adult humans, and there is no known antidote.

The poison of Puffer fish can be deadlier than Cyanide. But this poison is useless against Sharks. As a result a shark can eat them without any trouble. Puffer fish are very bad swimmer. Puffer fish are mainly found in the tropical and subtropical waters. But some of the species are found in the fresh water too.

Being pulled from the water pufferfish is inflated because it has the same ability to swallow air water. Dried in the sun keeping the rounded shape and once dry are used as adornment. In China they are very popular because, once dry, are introduced through the mouth a light bulb turning on "lamps blowfish" to which hang from the ceilings. Despite the deadly poison these fish are eaten with great pleasure in Japan. With them the "Fugu" is prepared. A cook needs to possess a certificate of a special school where he teaches prepare the Fugu. Poisoning resulting from eating blowfish unprepared is fatal in sixty percent of cases. Definitely a dish high risk.

Puffer fish are omnivorous animals and eat a variety and plants and animals. Puffer fish mainly feed on the algae that grows on the rocks and coral and also the invertebrates that inhabit these areas. Large species of puffer fish will also eat shellfish such as shrimp and crabs and molluscs

The scientific name of the puffer fish is tetraodontidae is carnivore,

their size is of 1 meter .Some predators such as tiger sharks and sea snakes ,are unbothered by the puffer fish toxins.their swimming style is makes them vulnerable to predators.

In lieu of escape,pufferfish use their highly elastic stomachs and the ability to quickly ingest huge amounts of water (and even air when necessary) to turn themselves into a virtually inedible ball several times their normal size.

In Japan, they are called fugu and are very expensive, delicious treat. They are prepared only by trained, licensed fugu chef. Most puffers are found in tropical and subtropical ocean waters, but some species live in brackfish and even fresh water. Some species of pufferfish are considered vulnerable due to pollution, habitat loss, and overfishing, but most populations are considered stable.

Puffer fish vary in size from one inch long pygmy puffer, to a two feet long freshwater giant puffer.
Main feature, common for all puffer fish, is ability to ingest huge amount of water (and air sometimes) which increases their body size and turn them into odd-looking ball-like creatures. Quick transformation scares predators.
Scientists believe that puffer fish developed this tactic as a method of the self-defense because they are poor swimmers that cannot escape from the danger quickly.
Increase of the body size is not the only tactic used against the predators. Almost all species of puffer fish contain toxin (called tetrodotoxin) that can be 1200 times stronger than cyanide.
One puffer fish contains enough toxin to kill 30 adult men.
Toxin is not located in all parts of the puffer fish, and certain cultures prepare puffer fish (meal called fugu in Japan) as a delicacy. Only specially trained chiefs can clean the fish properly and prepare delicious and toxin-free meal. Just one wrong cut of the fish meat can result in the death of the customer.

The
puffer fish contains tetrodotoxin.Tetrodotoxin
inhibits the firing of action potentials in nerves by binding to the voltage-gated
sodium channels in nerve cell membranes and blocking the passage of sodium ions
(responsible for the rising phase of an action potential) into the nerve cell. The
tetrodotoxin it is actually produced by certain symbiotic bacteria

Puffer fish are carnivorous animals. Their diet includes mostly invertebrates and algae. They eat corals, sponges, sea urchins and other types of echinoderms. Puffer fish crush and grind up their prey with their heavy, fused teeth, and can also open and eat clams, mussels, and shellfish.

The pufferfish is truly unique. Just by looking at a pufferfish, you can tell that it is no ordinary fish. Some have likened the puffer fish to underwater hamsters or even panda bears. Regardless of what you see when you look at pufferfish, you can't help but notice their expressive faces that sometimes even appear to be smiling.

The tetraodontids have been estimated to diverge from diodontids between 89 and 138 million years ago. The four major clades diverged during the Cretaceous between 80 and 101 million years ago. The oldest known pufferfish genus is Eotetraodon, from the Lutetian epoch of Middle Eocene Europe, with fossils found in Monte Bolca and the Caucasus Mountains. The Monte Bolca species, E. pygmaeus, coexisted with several other tetraodontiforms, including an extinct species of diodontid, primitive boxfish (Proaracana and Eolactoria), and other, totally extinct forms, such as Zignoichthys and the spinacanthids.

A Puffer fish is widely known for its ability to turn itself into a ball. It can ingest huge amount of water to blow up its body. It is also known as "Blowfish" or "baloonfish". In this Hub I will share some interesting facts about Puffer fish.

Puffer fish are not good at swimming but they can use their natural defense skill to protect themselves from predators. Puffer fish are mainly found in the tropical and subtropical waters. But some of the species are found in the fresh water too. There are more than 150 species of puffer fish are found in all over the world.

Biologists think that puffer fish can inflate because of their clumsy way of swimming makes them vulnerable to predators.

Amazingly, some meat of the puffer fish is delicious.

Some species of puffer fish are vulnerable because of pollution, habitat loss and over fishing but most are considered stable.

The puffer fish created the following amazing circle with only his lateral fins. Amazing!!!!

These complex structures are produced by males nests in the sandy bed in order to attract females and impregnate as well as serving as protection for the eggs and fry during their first moments of life.

A predator that manages to snag a puffer before it inflates won’t feel lucky for long. Almost all pufferfish contain tetrodotoxin, a substance that makes them foul tasting and often lethal to fish. To humans, tetrodotoxin is deadly, up to 1,200 times more poisonous than cyanide. There is enough toxin in one pufferfish to kill 30 adult humans, and there is no known antidote.

The Pufferfish is a family of fish, with about 100 species. They are also known as the blowfish, fugu, swellfish, and globefish. They are called the pufferfish because when they are threatened, they puffs up to about twice their normal size by gulping water. In this engorged state, the pufferfish can swim at only about half their normal speed. are found in sub-tropical and tropical marine waters (including coral reefs) in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.
