Very strange eating practice (puffer)?
Though you haven’t responded to my last request I thought you might have more interest in the new results. I have separated my black dog face puffer and began attempting to feed him in isolation. Well I put food in his tank and he started swimming around. I had seen this behavior in the main tank but …. Well he seemed to accidentally run into a piece of krill and then with almost a look of shock he ate it. Then I put in a thawed clam and he swam around for quite a while 5min or more (this is a 10g hospital tank) he eventually found it. He kept coming back to the shell to look for more after he ate it. I moved the shell and he kept coming back to the same spot looking for more. I thought he might be blind however if I move my hand near the tank he will respond.
