My son has his ET puffer in his room. He is worried because at night Jerry seems to swim fast and run into the tank wall often.

Any thoughts or advice on this behavior?

Thank you!

What size tank is he in, a grow out tank for a little guy should be around 75g and eventually a much larger tank.

He is in a 65 right now....He is about 2 inches long......
We are planning on switching tanks at Christmas....the aquarium store we bought him from sold us the tank too. (Then after we cycled it they told us it would be too small.) Yes...we should have done more research. B

At 2" the 65g should be ok for a little while. Fish have to get used to living in a glass cage, how long have you had him.

He does look healthy.
