Yeah, I just had a look at one of my puffs that was bit about a month ago, and it definitely looks like that (only not as dark).

what proves it is a bite to me is the gaps on each side.. where there are no teeth... i have to say mine occasionally get them.. and they look just like that..
melafix and a sharp word with all puffers concerned and they seem to behave!

I noticed the guard on my powerhead was missing and he likes to hoover around them from time to time. The second time it happened he knocked the cover off the powerhead, he got too close and when he swam away he had a round cicle just like yours on his belly.
Adorable.
I never know what I would learn from TPF! I now can recognize a puffer bite mark on the belly.
