Jewel Solandri Pufferfish Canthigaster SolandriOverview: The Jewel Solandri Pufferfish, distinguished by its vibrant blue body dotted with orange to yellow spots, is a captivating addition to any marine aquarium. This small, yet visually striking species, also known as the Solandri's Puffer or Blue Spotted Puffer, typically reaches up to 4 inches in length, making it a suitable choice for a variety of tank sizes.
Origin: Native to the Indo-Pacific region, the Jewel Solandri Pufferfish thrives in coral reefs and lagoons, where it tends to stay close to hideouts and rocky crevices. Its colorful appearance not only adds aesthetic value to the reef but also helps in blending with the reef’s vibrant life.
Feeding: Omnivorous by nature, the Solandri's Puffer requires a varied diet consisting of marine algae, small crustaceans, and meaty foods like mysis shrimp and brine shrimp. To ensure proper health and coloration, incorporating vitamin-enriched foods is recommended. Regular feeding of hard-shelled foods will also help in wearing down their ever-growing teeth.
Tank Mates: Ideal tank mates for the Jewel Solandri Puffer include peaceful to semi-aggressive fish that are not small enough to be considered prey. Suitable companions may include larger clownfish, dottybacks, and hawkfish. It’s crucial to avoid housing them with overly aggressive species or those small enough to fit in their mouths.
Aggression: While generally peaceful towards most tank mates, the Solandri Puffer can exhibit territorial behaviors, especially towards its own kind and similar-looking species. A well-structured tank with ample hiding spots can mitigate aggression.
Experience Level: Moderate. The Jewel Solandri Pufferfish requires a dedicated aquarist familiar with its dietary needs and capable of maintaining high water quality. Not recommended for beginners due to its specific care requirements.
Water Parameters:
- Temperature: 72-78°F (22-26°C)
- Salinity: 1.020-1.025 sg
- pH: 8.1-8.4
- Ammonia/Nitrite: 0
- Nitrate: <20 ppm
Conclusion: The Jewel Solandri Pufferfish is a mesmerizing addition to any marine aquarium, appealing to aquarists seeking both beauty and a touch of personality. With proper care, feeding, and tank management, this puffer will undoubtedly become a cherished member of your aquatic family.

Takes a Licking and Keeps on Ticking
Color: Green/Black
I love this watch despite the fact that it is really a toy. I love the look of the watch, I love how lite the weight of the watch is on my wrist, and it really does keep good time if you manage the solar charge properly. Other than looking cool on your wrist, this watch has absolutely no functions other than time keeping. The black plastic bezel is molded into the case and does not turn, so don't plan on using that. The watch has no light, the dial numbers are non-luminous and the hands are very limited in terms of luminosity. No buttons. All you can do is adjust the time and date by pulling out what used to be a winding stem in the good old days.
The small tag on the strap with Geographic coordinates shown on it indicate the location of the old Timex manufacturing facility (SW of Waterbury, CT).
I have a nice ledge at my bedroom window and it gets good western sun for a good part of the day regardless of the time of year. On this ledge you will find a half dozen solar powered watches (mostly Casio) properly aligned to maximize the charge they may receive each day. Note that the description for this Timex watch specifically states that a lightbulb won't charge this watch. You need direct sunlight for several hours if you want to get more than a 3-week charge into this watch.
So, I'll leave you with a couple of tips, my friends; 1.) If you are looking for a first watch to give your outdoorsy oriented Son or Daughter, then give them this one. Why? Because it is cool looking, fairly well built, and it actually works, 2.) After you receive your Timex watch, be sure to keep the display mount it is packaged with. It makes a great fixture to mount your watch on for charging and allows you to maximize the position of the solar cells on the dial so that you can optimize charging time.
Have Fun!

Excellent value, flawless performance for well over a year and no signs of quitting.
Color: Green/Black
Excellent value, had this for well over a year and it still keeps perfect time, still water resistant.
No worries about having to change batteries.
Owned a fancy expensive (battery) watch once and the dept. store repair intentionally sabotaged the watch in the hopes I would purchase another from them. Yeah, good luck with that, lost my business forever.
This is the 21st century, cell phones are the new time pieces, but solar is totally reliable and Timex makes it happen.
Holds a charge for many months, although I prop it in a bright window for a few days every few months or so just to make sure the cells are always fully charged, although it's probably unnecessary, just being over cautious. I haven't actually experienced this watch ever running out of power even after months of use. Damn impressive, as it should be.

Good value for solar watch
Color: Black/Orange
Nice watch! It is plastic like but it is solar. No indiglo button only a little luminous on the hands so you don't want to wear it in tje dark and expect to check the time. 45mm case is good size for my wrist and the band works good also, Not too long not too short. Overall a good watch with no problems

Do not buy
Color: Green/Black
Do not buy. When I received the watch it did not work and the battery was dead. I bought a new battery and it killed that one as well after about a month.
