After water changes my green spots get all goofy and they glide about all happy, especially my bigger green spot. I snapped a few pictures yesterday, unfortunately the water is not clear and stuff is floating around, so nothing is potm worthy, but I still thought y'all would enjoy.

Still nice pics of happy puffers, I love changing water for this reason.
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Re: We love our water changes!
I always thought a WC must be like that first really warm spring day when you can open up all the windows in the house after a long winter and just let that fresh air flow.
There are many knowledgeable fish keepers on this forum willing to help and give great advice...The advice is free; What you choose to do with it gives it value.

You have the right to bear Puffers.

Re: We love our water changes!
I think you got some great photos there and I bet a water change has go to feel awfully refreshing to say the least 
The GSPs look so different when they're all grown up

I love their faces. They look like smileys with fins.
I can now tell that one of mine will probably grow up looking the same. Its weird with puffers it seems the bigger they grow the cuter they look. Total opposite of other animals.
