Also known as the Peewee Puffa, Bumblebee Puffa and the Malabar Puffa, this small freshwater fish comes from Kerala and southern Karnataka in southwest India. It feeds on mainly small insects but also eats small plants such as diatoms. Unlike many pufferfish species that are solitary and fiercely territorial, the Dwarf Pufferfish occurs in shoals in the wild.
