Blue Spotted Puffer Unusal Behavior

[jmike50]

Hi everyoen,

Is it unusal for a puffer to take up the corner of the tank and lay there on the bottom like he is asleep? I just fed them and he came up and ate like a pig. He still acts like his old self, but just started the corner thing today. All water is within parameters and just done a WC on 03/11/2013. He is showing no sigsn of stress and no hard breathing. I just think this is very unusal. Any one else got any info. on this type of behavior? :lol2:Thanks Mike

Actually that is normal. Sometimes he will lay in the sand And the sand will stick to him too

He does that too!

I really enjoy my puffer. He has gotten to where he eats out of my hand. I will let him do that for now, but when he gets bigger NO he might take a good bite off a finger...LOL
