Video of Biggie (gsp)

Post by BiggieSmalls »

It's really rare that I get any decent pics or video of Biggie because he views me as the paparazzi. BUT, on this particular day he set the stage for a short video to be shot. I was only allowed to shoot from a minimum of 5 feet away. Thank heaven for the zoom button. :lol:

If you notice during the video his belly color/pattern changes. Sometimes it's white, sometimes gray and sometimes he get's a little white t-bone stripe right up the center. I believe this reflects his stalking mode. I also wanted to note at about 2:15 how cute he looks peeking his head through the little cave. :smitten:

The tanks was a little dirty so please ignore. Ok enough babbling.

*** turn the sound down before watching, extreme background noise. Sorry.

Cute little video .... he likes that right end of the tank, doesn't he? He's a plump little puffer, just the way I like them. Good job with the vid. :D

Thanks PPG. He does favor the right side of the tank. I wondering if that's because he has plants on that side. I kept the left a little more open for swimming room but he pretty much does all his biz on the right. Was thinking of adding more plants but I don't want to overcrowed the tank.

I'd add a few more to the left side to see if he starts using that side more. I believe that puffers love having alot of plants in their tank.
