Default Re: Still ill pufferfish

I posted last week about my porcupine puffer who seems to be very hungry, but cannot feed. I've tried silversides and other frozen shrimp to no avail. He seems to be so hungry, and he goes after the food as normal, but he cannot seem to get them into his mouth!? It seems as though he bites it but either cannot open his mouth all of the way, or decides he doesn't like the way it tastes after having it touch his lips. I have no idea what the problem is, but it is very worrysome! Any ideas on how to help him?
