The Puffer Forum

I put Yoshi in a container today while taking the water out to move the tank to put a skimmer on. She was in there a little longer than intended, we were at the water store for a while because there was a line out the door when we got there (I had to lower the salinity before putting her back in, so we needed to go out and get another 5 gallons) and when we got back, I dumped her back in the tank and I saw these on the empty container:

Which would explain why she looked like she had just eaten all the time. She's much slimmer now than she was when I first got her. At least she eats the bloodworms that have been soaked in Jungle Fizz....unlike one other little turd puffer that I know.....

Are you feeding meal worms? Meal worms are hard to digest and very fatty.

Nope. Blood worms, brine shrimp and mysis shrimp and snails for teeth. Kinda been heavy on the blood worms because she loves those even soaked in meds.

Sorry, I didn't put this in the hospital originally because it was more of a show and tell then a question.

All Qs about health go in the Hosp.
