Is this normal behavior?

[logansmomma1228]

Can fish see their reflections in the sides of the tank? My Dwarf Puffer is eating fine and all my parameters are good (Am-0 Ni-0 Na-<10), but sometimes he darts around really fast as if he is attacking his reflection lol. Makes me have second thoughts about getting him a buddy.... He doesn't appear to breathing funny or anything. I can't really find anything on this behavior so any help will be appreciated! TIA

My Betta Felony has regular battles with himself in one corner of the tank when the kitchen light first comes on. He always wins.

Fish can see their reflections in the glass. I'd take it as a sign of good health if your puffer is chasing his reflection.

My pink gouramis "kiss" their reflections
