Well, as we all know, no two puffers are exactly alike and it sounds to me that you've just got yourself a biter. :lol:

Snails never hit the bottom before they are completely in his belly. He doesnt just suck them out. He eats snail and shell whole. Hes a very aggressive lil guy!

It sounds like it. Obie, my Fahaka, is sort of like that, only Obie won't bite me, or hasn't yet anyway, but he's very aggressive when it comes to food. You'd think he never gets fed by the way he behaves. :lol:

Our wee little F8 bites fingers. She bites the water siphon too. She's a very bold little girl.

Very true Troender!

Georgie is a very aggressive little guy, I am def going to have to watch my fingers in the tank! He's still smaller than my thumb but attacks the syphon and anything else silly enough to go into the tank.

i've been bitten by my gsp and my abei all within 2 days of each other, with mine it's only if your fingers are just dangling in the water, if i put my hand fully in they just swim off :D

Bloat attacked me for the first time yesterday when I was putting a clam in his tank
