I have 2 puffers and the one eats way more than the other and the other is kinda shy and wont really eat if the one is eating it and he tends to gorge himself. How should i make sure they get the same amount?

Can you try feeding at opposite ends of the tank?

Some puffers are picky. Maybe the one doesn't "like" what you're feeding it? Try some new stuff maybe...

dadof4- i have tried that and it seems to work good, except when my powerhead blows it all around than the one tries to take all...but when i break it up they each seem to get their piece

i notice that the one that doesnt eat as much loves everything i give them shes just more docile for some reason...and shes older than the little one. its weird
