Here's some really bad pics of my puffer... I couldn't get good pic of her as she's always hiding...
But you should still be able to tell that she has a huge tummy... Could she be in any health issue?

Side Q ... what kind of plants are those that she's hiding in? I have the same ones and don't know what they are.
I bought them as Vallisneria americana.

I guess I will feed them once a day now and see if she slims down. Thanks!

Good idea to skip one day a week, too - let the digestive track empty a bit, like it would regularly in nature.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.
