Don't hold your breath waiting - palambangs are incredibly slow growers. He really is a tiny fella though lol.

Unfortunately, they become more reclusive as they age and they don't like to travel very far for food (more than a couple of inches hehe).

Great little characters though, they really make you smile. :D

Yup, it is also known as the dragon puffer. A 55 gallon should suit a full-size one or perhaps two. As they are not very active you can get away with less room than for many other puffers of a similiar size.
 
Also called Humpback puffers & King Kong Puffers.

One of the cutest in my opinion!

here's two of our trio...
