Product Details
Case of  porcupine blow fish with sharp spines measuring approximately 4 inches to 5 inches are fish of the family Diodontidae, also commonly called blow fish, balloon fish and globe fish. Porcupine fish or porcupine blow fish are perfect gifts for collectors of weird and unusual items.  They come with a hanger for easy display.  Porcupine fish are closely related to puffer fishes but porcupine fish have heavier spines on their body. Porcupine fish are medium to large sized fish, and are found in shallow temperate and tropical seas worldwide.  Porcupine blow fish have the ability to double their size by inflating their body by swallowing water or air, thereby becoming rounder. This increase in size reduces the range of potential predators to those with much bigger mouths.
Porcupine fish have a second defense mechanism  provided by their sharp spines.
