Already done. Pufferfish bred in captivity are NOT poisonous since their bodies don't produce the poison. It's bacteria from the food they eat in the wild that produces the poison. They don't eat that food and they don't become poisonous. Which you'll find many restuarants that server fugu actually use the captive forms of fugu. Chance of posioning and dying equal ZERO.

Thanks for the info, didn't realize that. Do you know what bacteria that is?

As is everything, pufferfish is an acquired taste. I choose not to acquire it.
