One in a million puffer?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thats kinda hard...keeping my hand out. I use the siphon tube, the vacuum to clean the gravel at the bottom..and its a very tall tank and my tube is not that long. Besides I am also curious what ppl do when they have a large puffer or some other big aggressive fish that likes to bite. But thanks for your comment Lil stinker, BBQ sauce part was funny.
 
I had some of these, and yes, they like to bite your hands, lol! I just used a longer tube for syphoning, and tongs for fixing things in the tank. :)
 
Use a tank divider to keep them away Thats what I used to do. I decorated my tank with the divider in mind so i have a place that divides in a third then feed them on that end wait until they move down there and lock them in. :) sneaky but no biting.
 
I trained my GSP to spit water at his food, i also taught it to jump a litte bit.
 
yeah my GSP's seem to like my hand right around feeding time :) lol i have let my smaller of my two GSP's bite me, kind of felt like if you were to take tweezers and pinch your finger, but he did leave a little mark. hes also not full grown and im unsure about letting my bigger GSP bite me but when i see his teeth and the size of his mouth, he could probably easily get his mouth around the end of my pinky! but like russll said, i have gotten mine to jump as well. only does it around feeding time of course(they are like my dog and only do tricks if you have food or a treat) but my 4 inch GSP will shoot himself out of the water like an inch or two real slow to try and get my finger
 
And very posibly swallow air while his head if out of water. Bad idea...
