Wow they do have expressions. You can clearly tell he is intrigued and trying to analyze the strange new object!

Is that a MBU?

LOL Totally True! My GSP's like to study and attack the siphon hose when I am doing water changes. :D
One has learned to not fear my hand so I will have to be careful or I may get nibbled on.

lol when i had mine it was afraid of the siphon and my hand. but if i stuck a finger in his tank he come up to it, and would brush along me. every once in a while he would be eyeing up my nail to see what it is or if its food. those things won me over so badly with these fish, that if i own fish, they will be puffers lol. they are so full of personality/curiousity, add in how personable they are with their owners and they are literally dogs in water lol

Lol, that is quite adorable. Looks like Birdy's wondering if he can swim into it...
Very clean-looking and pretty tank, btw!
