Ahhh didn't even notice that black background with your reflection in it. I also prefer the black myself. I can't put any plants at all real or plastic with my Buddy so I hear where your coming from. Just thought it would make it a bit more interesting for both you and Bubbles with more decor. He is a cutie that is for sure.

Any idea whether you could actually feed him some greenery so that he won't eat what's planted? I have no experience, myself, with your type of puff; just wondering...

I envy that he poses for you! He's a doll. Congratulations!

someone posted up a while back that they feed their puffer some kind of salad stuff, and they sucked it right down.

The other day I accidentally knocked a the better part of a pear in the tank and Bubbles started eating it.
