Freeze Dried vs Sun Dried?

I was wondering since you guys caution freeze dried shrimp because they give our puffer lockjaw, will sun dried krill do the same thing. Thanks

Re: Finally

I don't use it as a staple food. Maybe one small one a week for treat. Is that alright?

Finally

I finally found a dry food that my puffer will eat. They are called "River Shrimp," and they are freeze dried krill and they have the shell on. Great for trimming his teeth. It is about $7.50 and you get 500+ shrimp. Great idea!

Re: Returning puffer owner :)

I like that bubble wall in the back. Helps oxygenate the water and higher temperatures since the water is less oxygenated. I like the looks of your puffer. One thing I would have went with live sand instead of rock to help balance out your PH, just food for thought. Sweet looking puffer.

I immediately started giving it IP medication and about 2 weeks later he is now bright as usual and not lethargic, I am now using the brand Hikari, it is a parasite f...

GSP Full Color

I have had TJ (my GSP name) for 8 months and at first when I got him, he was a very bright colored fish with only green and white. I have seen him about a week now having black lines near his mouth stretching across to his first spot, another thing is, his skin color is kind of murky near his tail. ...
