Here's my little guy:
Haven't seen many pictures of sleeping puffers online and mine usually doesn't sleep with the lights on, but that was day 3 of his pop eye treatment so I guess he was exhausted. It's so easy to overfeed a puffer when they look up at you with those eyes...
His (maybe her?) name is Fwoom.
I've always had pets, even as a kid, from turtles, snakes, birds, dogs, basically anything my parents weren't deadly afraid of. I didn't get into fish until recently. Before this guy, I had a Red Tailed Boa, but had to give it away due to moving into an apartment that doesn't allow pets. He's in a way better place than I could've given him (bio professor wanted him, lucky snake has a massive tank now) and I ended up sneaking Fwoom into a small tank hidden in my closet for 2 months before moving to my current location. He's currently in a 15 gallon, but when he gets bigger I'll upgrade accordingly.
Fwoom was a Walmart puffer, but he's living the good life now!
I actually bring bloodworms with me when I go to Walmart (Walmart seriously tries to feed them flake food...) and if there's any dead ghost shrimp in the tank next to them, I'll scoop them up and put that in their tank also.
So that's about it.
