Hi & welcome.

Sounds more like puffer poo from a puffer with internal parasites?

Ive havent heard of a puffer that made a bubble nest. Is it floating or sitting on the bottom?

I doubt very seriously that those bubbles are from your puffer, or they aren't bubbles. :nope:

But let me congratulate you on your new arrival of Percy (cute name). :thumb:
