Mines done it twice, but by the time i try to find my phone hes back at the tank begging for food, guess it was practice,

Re: I've never seen a GSP inflate
Woke up to mine half inflated a couple days ago. The second he saw me looking at him he deflated.

Re: I've never seen a GSP inflate
I think there's some kind of secret signal that passes from puff to puff saying not to let humans see them inflated! XD
Never trust big puffers. The fingers you save may be your own. -RTR

Re: I've never seen a GSP inflate
When I first got mine, it would "practice" fairly frequently. It's been well over 2 months since I've seen it try again. It would just take a couple swallows and inflate what I thought was half way and stop maybe once a week (that I saw). Hasn't done it since though and never reached what I thought was full capacity.
My theory was that it would get agitated when I turned the basement lights on.

That's a cool picture Corvus! I've looked for pictures and video too but never found one.

Re: I've never seen a GSP inflate
Mine practices frequently getting to about what I think is half size. Then deflates the instant I reach for my phone. I've wanted to webcam the tank but haven't gotten the motivation yes.
