Feed to a slightly rounded belly. Brine shrimp is basicly non-nutritious. Try finding better foods by reading the GSP article in our Library & the feeding artricles in there too.

Re: Green Spot puffers over feeding
GSPs are like puppies. They will beg for food long after they are full. You have to feed slowly at first and watch their belly so you get a feel for how much fills them to the right degree. If they are puffed out to the limit and their tummy looks all stretched, they are overfed.
