oooh i like the sand! but I LOVE that puffer!!! I wish mine would bury himself, but he likes to sleep in his tree cubby. Any pointers on how to fatten one up? he only really likes shrimp, and bloodworm.

Actually, the only guy who could source them out was out of town.. so we bought one privately for $40.00 he is roughly 3 1/2 inches. So it wasn't too bad of a price.. !!

hehe.. give it time!! Ours didn't burry himself for awhile, and then one day he did, and hasn't stopped .. what kind of substrate do you have??

We feed ours shrimp as well, along with wild shrimp from TNT, and baby crayfish.. it's pretty cool watching him hunt them down, even though he is a lurker.. lol Ours will not touch blood worms, but we tried earth worms, and he loved them, he wouldn't let go!! .. They're just nasty to touch!!
