Can anyone explain why this guy does this? He loves sitting in front of my powerheads! It looks like he's stuck in the rock, but he's really not! Kinda funny huh!

Is there an explanation for this? Is he retarded? He will sometimes point his mouth in the powerhead for minutes on end, and his big lips will flap like a puppy dog sticking his head out of the car window! It's funny!:jumping:

Good! He has been happy eating all of my green chromis in my tank! LOL

Other than that, yesterday, he ate about 1/8 pound of silversides, squid, shrimp and even my regular slow sinking fish food pellets. This guy eats everything! He doesn't care what it is! Oh, and algae sheets!

I would wonder about parasites. My yellow tang did the same thing when it had ich. The water running over helps to get it off. At least they think it does. Does it scratch at the rocks any? Not trying to say it has parasites, but something to check and make sure it doesn't. You can't be too safe. Cool fish though. I want to get a puffer myself.

Everything in my tank has been there for quite some time. The puffer will generally sit in the spot that's in the pictures, and then swim around. He's not scratching on the rocks, and there's no sign of ick. But I will watch him closely. Thanks everyone!
