The Puffer Forum

Hi, well in line with puffs being contrary little beasties, mine have decided that they LIKE having their picture taken!!!

Last night I thought I'd try and get a few shots of them so I sat in front of their tank where I normally do and brought my camera up and expected to be there for a while... the three of them came zipping over to see what I was up to! I almost dropped my camera! Maybe they just wanted to show off their fat bellies after having a meal of brine shrimp but they were happy, fat, posing puffs

They love chasing the brine shrimp around the tank… it’s very entertaining. Although I still love how they look like they’re slurping up a spaghetti strand when they’re eating blood worms. I keep trying to get a picture of that but they don't like their picture being taken while eating LOL
Bully saying "Hi!"

Zippy (cos she's always speeding all over the place)

As yet un-named but very fat

As yet un-named but very fat and checking out Bully's cave

Wow Tara, those photos are really nice! You a professional photographer on the side? Darn girl, you did good. I wish half of mine would come out as nicely as yours have. Fantastic!!

Fatty is cute.

really nice pics!! ur puffs are tiny man!

PPG - I think it was more their willingness to 'pose' so I could take LOTS of pictures to get those ones rather than any photography skills I have but thank you

Yeah, they are small... very different to George the Abei but they actually seem friendlier and are soooo cute when they're chasing down their food! They were so funny when I first put a feeding cone in there... slooooooowly working their way across the tank and constantly flinching and darting back a bit even though it didn't move... then they were afraid of the bloodworms for a while but then they realised it releases food and now they take turns periodically checking it out to see if any food has miraculously appeared (which it hasn't cos I can't get live bloodworm right now so they're making due with brine shrimp).

aw dps are really cute yep easily my fav puffs lol!! could watch them all day

nice pics - look very good -

Really enjoyed your pics. Those are some fat little DPs
