Sleeping puffer!

Post by El Scorpio »

I have an orange veggie clip in my tank that I use for seaweed for my Fiji orangetail, well last night I suppose she figured it'd be a good spot for a nap. Doesn't look comforatable to me, but she seems to like it.

I think a whole thread on pictures of sleeping puffers would be amazing. Your puffer is so cute!

You are getting sleepy... you only hear the sound of my voice... you must do water changes... water changes... water changes... water changes...

Last night was the first time I've seen her on the clip, although she was there again just a few hours ago. Right now she's perched on top of a rock in the tank sound asleep.

My toby would perch in the same corner every night--like Velcro!

Tobies apparently have the ability to glue themselves to any surface. My Hawaiian white spotted would stick to the side of this log decoration I had at night and sleep. Always wondered how he did that.
