I have noticed lately that one of my puffers seems to sleep vertically. His nose straight up and his tail straight down. Is that normal? He's eating just fine and swimming around actively in the day.

If he doesn't seem to have trouble swimming properly the rest of the time I doubt there is anything wrong with him. Maybe he just likes reclining. :p

I've seen my GSPs resting or sleeping in just about every position except belly up. No worries.
