The Puffer Forum

Jungle Fungus Clear (the fizz tabs).
The lady at the pet store said it should work. I used as directed last night, woke up this morning with a dead fish.
If there is something better I should have used I would like to know for future needs.

I will.
Tried to get some of Finn but he wouldn't stay still long enough! After he got used to his new home and stopped sulking at his decorations... he was constantly moving. He was definitely an entertaining little guy. And quite the piglet.

Tomorrow we will test it and begin intr...

Thanks! Hope to become a big part of the forum as I will be getting more puffers. I just love the little guys. I'm not sure what the salinity of the hospital tank was when I moved him into it, as its a small cube bowl thing, I kept it as a hospital tank for my betta (never had to use it thankfully)....

I own a GSP, General Finn. Water and salinity is fine. He eats and is active. Great colors! But there seems to be a problem. I know bobbing up and down on the side of the tank is a sign of boredom and that the tanks should be heavily decorated to keep them occupied. But General Finn doesn't like dec...
