Benji the S&S puffer

Post by puffpaddy »

Hello everyone!

I have some videos of my S&S puffer that I'm stoked on. And have any of you ever had a puffer that likes to carry his/her food around in his/her mouth? Benji was holding the body of the RC-crab in his mouth for over 5 minutes last night.

And before anyone says anything, I know my diatoms are outta control. That is what happens when you don't use RO/DI water!!!

In this video he's eating a pretty big RC-crab. He was trying to bite the crab and it kept slipping out of his mouth. the crab only has a few legs because of my failed attempts to get his claws lol


Here is the video of him cruzin with the crab hahaha!



Here is a video of Beji when I first got him, he was upset that the ammonia was a little over 0.0 lol

Thanks PP! He loooooves his crabs!

I do have about 100 lbs of LR, but this is his QT tank. The 30 gallon was too hard to maintain proper water quality so I took out all the LR in the 80 gallon and have it sitting in tubs with a powerhead. He will be in this tank until mid December or early January when I get his 180 fully set up.
