I seen one of my males puff once when fighting over a worm with another puff. It only lasted a few seconds before he returned to normal.

Thanks for the concern J-P. Everything is fine, I've been lurking but haven't been posting much. School and family have taken center right now but I'm in the process of setting up a new tank and hopefully getting my parents to agree in letting me set up our old thirty gallon. So expect puffer pictures to come.


My dp puffed when he died but I was worried about trying to save him and didn't think to take a picture.
