Re: Puffing!

I have seen one of my figure 8's puff up one time. He deflated very quickly and looked like he did it on accident and looked at suprised at me.

Not one of my gsps have puffed.

My porcupine puffer puffed twice.

My dogface has never puffed.

MY 3" GSP SUICIDE

I come home from work and take a seat infront of my 55 gallon tank. I notice a gsp missing. I look under all cracks and caves.

THEN

I find him on the floor. He jumped out during the day and laid there to die. About 3 feet from the tank. He was biggest GSP.
