Odd congo puffer.

Although my congo puffer may of been a bit skinny when he arrived he's eatin like a horse. He's at size aswell that a site suggest to feed once a week.

Well last night I fed a large piece of tiger prawn and this morning when I was around the tank he came up to front so I chucked in a whole mussel which he gobbled down aswell.

Should I cut back on feeding or feed him on demand?

How big is he? Sedentary lurkers ahould not be fed more than 2x/week.

about 4"

Spud (suvatti) did that when i first got him. He's stopped now though... so yeah, I don't know the answer to your question. Maybe he's hungry becasue he was underfed before?

yeh, he was quite skinny when i got him so properly needs a good feed untilo he settled down i guess.

I'll carry on feeding him with the others (every other day) until he slows down.
