Hello!
We are new to puffers, but not new to Saltwater in general. We purchased a puffer 2 days ago. He did super well, and was eating and seemed very happy. Today I find him on a rock. He turned dark grey and not greeting us at the glass when we come in, like usual. The tank is 100 gallons and has been cycled. He is the only resident in the tank right now, besides some hitchhikers from the live rock. The parameters seem normal to us (we are double checking at the fish store). He also has been eating well. The store we purchased him at, said they usually look like this when sleeping, but I thought I'd check here too. As a new "Puffer Parent", I am a bit worried about him and want to fix it, if we are unknowingly doing something wrong.
