DPs burrow?

Post by cherabin »

Hi all, I'm new to this forum :)

I have an arrowhead and a congo puffer and simply adore the way they bury themselves in the substrate waiting for a meal to pass by. I'm keen to know if dwarf puffers exhibit the same behavior?

They do like to perch on plant leaves.

I agree with PufferPunk they do find some interesting places to perch and sleep!

Mine doesn't burrow.
Puff does like to sleep under a leaf; kind of almost like a big hat. Very cute.
