My GSP PUFFED =O

Post by Pufferluv09 »

I was doing a water change, moved a piece of driftwood, and found Pocky behind it as a round spikey ball! It was really startling... I tried taking a couple pictures, but I could not get a good one, then I stopped because I realized he was not breathing or moving at all-- I thought he was dead! D= And then a minute or so later, he started swimming and shrinking back to normal size. :shock:

I did take a couple, but they turned out very blurry...I guess I was too excited to hold the camera steady. This is the best one: Image

Considering most of us will never see a puffed GSP, blurry is fine!

Awesome pic. When I bought mine one of them puffed. But he was soo small. You really couldn't see his spines pokin out like yours. And he was pissed soo he didn't have as much color. Really cool pic nice job. I'd just becaref when u do wc. As to not scare him everytime lol. Cute pic thou. I'm definetly saving that. Thx
