Re: Hello Puffer Forum.
It's a term that was coined by Bertie or someone else (sorry I can't remember who, credit to whoever that was!) that refers to when your puffer comes up to the glass and swims back without facing away or taking their eyes off you in an attempt to be really cute and get delicious treats from you the owner.

Nice. Though my puffers swim away from me when I come to the glass with or without food. Don't know if thats normal. But that is what the search button is for.
seems though the search options is not working. If i do a search it will give me a screen with lines to click. But its not readable. Just lines ?! anyone else have this problem ?

Re: Hello Puffer Forum.
That might be just because they aren't use to you yet, you have them in a group so they've probably bonded more with each other than with you. (just guessing here)
As for the search bar ya the sever is down but being worked on right now.

Re: Hello Puffer Forum.
I feel for ya, it may just depend on the fishes personality and life experiences. I have one GSP who comes up to the glass fluttering his fins chomping his mouth and showing me his belly clearly indicating he wants my attention (or to simply feed him haha) while the other often hides in the decor or frantically glass surfs on the opposite end of the tank.
WARNING: Puffers are mischievous little blimps with enchanting powers. You may not be content with having just one.

Re: Hello Puffer Forum.
The search & drop-down menus are not working right now. We're having some technical difficulties with the board.

Re: Hello Puffer Forum.
Well, today I woke up to an unhappy sight. One of my GSP's that was in questionable health. Well the worst happened and he/she lost the fight. Woke up to say morning to the fish. And "B" was stuck to the filter. UGH. Here is a link http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forum ... ght=puffer . If anyone cares to read. It sucks. I feel so guilty for letting him pass. It was also my birthday yesterday. Happy birthday to me !
