The Puffer Forum

As he has recently moved I would say he is prob just irritated, keep trying and I am sure he will come round. Puffers can be grumpy buggers lol

Mine seems to have slowed down on his food since the room got colder. Gonna get him a heater.

Have you any recent pictures of your suvattii ?

She died many years ago. She did achieve mature size:


Here's my new Tatertot:

damn that lil feeder thing looks like a good idea i will have to try and find 1

Try worm cone feeder on amazon.com.

Wow i never seen a red one before. Your one now looks more like mine i did not think they would eat small worms mine won't touch any smaller worms, they look around the same size. great fish

it has now been 11 days and he has not eaten anything idk what to do

Might be time to get him some guppies. What live foods have you tried now?

i have tried frozen krill frozen fish than tried worms snails an theres 5 red eye tetras in there that hes showing no interest in

Excuse me if you've already answered this: How long have you had him? Has he ever eaten for you?

this is the 11th i have had him and he hasnt eaten for me yet...although there was a pretty decent sized snail in the tank and i cant find it so he may have eatn it but who knows with snails and its a pretty big tank so he has lots of place to hide

Ambush predators don't eat snails. I believe he hasn't eaten in a much longer time than 11 days. Sometimes when a fish stops eating, their stomach shrinks & they never eat again.

well that isnt what i wanted to hear...is there anything i should do

Try gut-loaded ghost shrimp, fiddler crab & live blackworms. anything that moves.
