I found these on a Chinese blog and had to share them with you guys! They're the best pictures of a puffed GSP I've seen (where the fish wasn't taken out of the water)

Yes
They're hidden under the skin when they're not puffing. I believe most puffers have spines actually. On GSPs you can see them as little white dots (kind of looks like ich, lol)
You can see the spines pretty well in my picture here:

I've had a GSP for 8 or so years and not once did I ever notice spines on him. Makes me wonder if Camille has spines somewhere...

I have never seen or felt spines on my SAPs..... And they always puffed up during a trimming.

Wow great pics!
Thanks for posting them zombie!
I always thought the little white dots on my GSP were pores in their skin
