Guys puffing is super dangerous for pufferfish and shortens their life span, don't stress them out

Aww, poor lil' dude.

I heard that in real life, a pufferfish inflating itself can be fatal.

If they've gulped air. Usually it would be water. But they only do this when very stressed.

Just like me, only I can't deflate, and I stare in the mirror wondering exactly where it all went wrong.

Have you noticed how you suck and blow out air all the time? Same principle.

My ma bought five puffer fish and I didnt realise that it's a defence mechanism that can kill them,2 sharp knocks on the tank n 4 dead fish

10 years ago | Likes 46 Dislikes 2

Yes! Many people don't realize this and like to see them puff up but it's bad for them. I have a puffer fish myself.

10 years ago | Likes 20 Dislikes 0

All puffer fish inflated when someone knocked on on the tank, ~ tank was not large enough to fit all inflated fish at the same time.

1/2 I am assuming that is what happened, it could be an unlucky happening where the fish died due to inflation. I have had puffer fish

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

2/2 myself, I have never seen any die due directly to inflation alone, if they are cornered and inflate together, stabby, stabby, fish dead.

No the act of inflating itself can cause the fish to die. It is meant to be a last resort defense mechanism only used it extreme stress. 1/2

If the fish are in a new aquarium they're stressed already, knocking on the tank caused them them to puff up which killed them. 2/2

For which I'm sorry for. It was an expensive set up with expensive fish, I just wanted to see them puff up.

Oh wow, that's kind of hilarious, if it wasn't so sad. That seems like a ver inappropriately small tank though.

I assume that is how it went down, I have never seen any die due to inflation alone.

It is possible though especially with air in the stomach.

Huh, I always pictured them sort of spurting around like a balloon.

I've always wondered how to spell the sound of a deflating balloon, thank you.

Physicist here, the mass of the air being ejected here is much smaller than the mass of the fish. Think you throwing a stone. Therefore the

10 years ago | Likes 53 Dislikes 0

recoil velocity is much smaller. Also the balloon has a nozzle that increases the velocity of the ejected mass, which

10 years ago | Likes 41 Dislikes 0

also increases recoil velocity.

Otherwise I would also spurt around like a balloon at exhaling? Fun. :D
