Relief after 5 weeks.
Posted: Wed Jan 03, 2007 3:44 am
At last my baileyi is eating.
I usually feed all my puffers twice a week but for the last 5 and a half weeks(maybe 6) my baileyi has not wanted anything.
He will often swim to the food and then swim away. There appeared nothing wrong with him, just that he didn't take the food.
Last night however he decided to eat the mussel I offered him.
Not sure why this is the case but it is an illustration of how not to panic if you puffer turns his nose up at a few meal times.

I'll bet he gave you a good scare.
