I think my puffer ate too much...

Post by newpuffergrl »

My puffer ate 2 very small crawfish(about 1/2 inch long), and now is in his little cave he looks VERY fat! Is it possible he ate too much? I tried to get the second one out before he could eat it because he ate the 1st on so fast but I wasnt fast enough. :(

He probably ate a bit too much, but he'll get over it. :) Skip his next feeding. He'll be fine.
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."
