Puffer Recognizes me...is this normal?

[sticky fish]

Hey guys,

I've noticed that when I come over to Woody's tank and talk to him, he swims over and watches me. If I say "woody, come here", he actually comes over.
Have any of you had this happen with your puffers?

A lot of my fish do this, but the puffer the most. I'd like to imagine he's thinking things besides "FOOOD!! NOW!!!!" when he does his dance and gets a crazed look in his eyes...but I know that's not the case.

are you sure it's a puffer?...I have been watching Monster Quest..."they" have undersea landing strips now....don't stare in it's eyes.....lol Enjoy your little guy!!!!

It's kind of bizarre...he does this AFTER he's been fed. It's really cute

 

[pinkfloydpuffer]

Yeah, puffs do that ;D (And after they're fed they just want more )

My puffers do that too. And they just stare at me...... lol

Yes they can recognize their owner. And they're little piggy's for food!

One of my angels hates my 15 year old son. When he looks in the tank it charges the glass. It only does it to him. It's kinda funny
