OMG! 
When Elvis did that to me, I laughed so hard I almost couldn't get a picture taken. Of course it was after my inital shock! He looks huge!

Re: Hmm Stropping!
maybe it's something in the air, the christmas excitment or something.. ??????
because for two days in a row Stars was doing the same thing... he'd deflate, then re inflate then deflate again, only to do it all again half an hour later...
he's not puffed since a few days after i got him, then suddenly for that two days every time i looked at him he puffed! I got really worried, because puffing to me can indicate ill health, and he kept doing it..
but he seems to have settled again now and has been back to his usual cruising for the last week..
They are odd realy, aren't they.

Almost like he wanted your attention.

when it worked he went back to his normal size.

Re: Hmm Stropping!
He's so funny! Great shot and good job not falling over!
Maybe there's really something in the air. I saw sushi partially puffed 2 nights ago, when he was introduced to mysis shrimp for the first time. For the first few bites he made, he swallowed water along with the food apparently, so he puffed up partially. I was so appalled I didn't even dash for the camera! I've never seen him puff.t1gerbee wrote:maybe it's something in the air, the christmas excitment or something.. ??????
