Mine will occasionally charge the glass if the cat or one of my dogs gets to close or if he sees a reflection he doesn't like. He's the most color sensitive (red things irritate him) of all my puffers and he also puffs more than any of the others, he can be one grumpy fellow. One fun thing is to feed them the biggest earthworms you can find and watch them attack, this is probably Leon's favorite food next to live crabs. I also dropped a leech in there, just out of curiosity and he attacked it wildly but didn't eat it.

There are no cories in his tank. All my puffers are in species only tanks.
