Actually it worked, cuz all the crap was gone, except 3 or 4 (visible) specks on his dorsal fin. BUt I wanted to make sure so I locked him up on the 10 gallon prison for 8 days. I just put him back in a few hours ago, and he has already layed his belly down on his fave perch and gone to sleep
(the lights are out in the tank)
When I redo the tank in a few weeks, I may have to use that oppurtunity to get the puffer back out again and find him a new home, cuz I want to have more inverts again. I need to add to my Cleanup Crew, considering I only have one large Hermit, one Cerith Snail (hitchhiker from the last batch of rock) and one HUGE Turbo left lol. Puffahz ate up all the other Ceriths I originally had, as well as a dozen Turbo's, an also did in my Peppermint Shrimp. I hate to do it, but I want more inverts, esp. shrimp. I'd like to have a Coral Banded or something. Getting him out while aquascaping might help me avoid another "Puff Up". I think he puffed up on me last time cuz I snipered him while he was sleeping. I guess he thought that was unfair. Boy, he wuz some pissed
