How long does your Puffer sleep

Post by jefferzbooboo »

My Hawaiian Pink Spot sleeps for maybe 5 hours a night without naps in the day, is that normal? He's right next to my computer so I get to watch him all day :)

My DP's sleep at least 6-8 hours a night, and one of my GSP's does not appear to sleep at all... Shakespeare cruises slowly, day or night, light or dark, whenever I see the aqarium. Jillybean, his new tankmate, on the other hand, sleeps in a hollow log at least 10 hours a day.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.

All of my marine tobies go to sleep about 15 mins after lights out, and attach themselves to the sand/rocks/the glass. They sleep until the room gets too light for them! So I'd say approx 9 hours. They don't nap during the day, but when they get older maybe they will have Nanna-naps
