Sorry, but I chuckled when I seen that, did you ? My suvattii used to puff up for no apparent reason, always at night though. Haven't seen them do it lately, other than when the one did it to the new Palembang to try and scare it off.
What kind of puffer is Arik? He is beautiful, although a little funny too! :)

He is a great puffer, probably one of, if not my favorite fish. a lot of personality and he passes the glass begging for food even though he definitely is well fed!! He is an all black Dogface Puffer.
