Valentini Puffer

Canthigaster valentini

Black-saddled Toby · Saddled Puffer · Valentini Toby

Predators & Oddballs

A small, charismatic puffer with bold black saddle markings and vivid spotted patterning. Valentini puffers are not reef-safe — they will nip at coral polyps, clam mantles, and the fins of slow-moving fish. Best suited to fish-only or FOWLR systems where their engaging personality and hardiness can be enjoyed without risk to invertebrates.
