My valentini has never had a problem being netted, he was always super calm and swam right into the net. Tonight, he was skiddish and the clowns harassed him to no end. I was moving everyone out of QT and back into the DT. When I caught him this time, he puffed up. It only lasted less than 10 seconds, he deflated when he got into his bag. Should I worry? He is breathing fast, but otherwise looks ok. He is up against the rock now, I assume to sleep as he falls asleep around 7:30-8 every night. Will he be okay??
 
Lights switched at 8, it woke him up and is swimming around eyeballing the crabs as per usual. I guess I am just a worried mom, as he seems to be ok.
