The first reported artificial propagation of yellow puffer, Xenopterus naritus (Richardson, 1848) from Sarawak, Northwestern Borneo

Pufferfish from family Tetraodontidae consists of 28 genera and 199 species worldwide, distributed in tropical and subtropical areas of Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Ocean (Nelson 1994). Some pufferfish species has become targeted species for aquaculture industry in various country including Ja...
