Poorly Montyfish Again (Looking Fatal)

Hello Again All The 10G tank my Dwarf Puffer is in has turned into a nightmare. It started with my large tank having a high nitrate reading (GSP puffed for a couple of seconds which made me check). So to help the bioload I bought some plants but I put them in the 15G with my Dwarf puffer first. 24 H...

Re: Dwarf Puffer Poop

I have purchased some Praziquantel and will treat all puffers as a preventative measure. Would rather be safe than sorry. I will dose the food and see how we go.

Re: Dwarf Puffer Poop

He eats a varied diet, that evening it had been bloodworm. To me it looks like undigested bloodworm.

No new fish, he was briefly with two new figure of 8s for one day about 6 weeks ago.

Re: Dwarf Puffer Poop

No hes all on his own,just with the Otos who he has been with for years. It was the otos who drew my attention to him to be honest as I saw truly stringy white poop from the otos a few days ago.

He has a very varied diet, that night he had been fed bloodworm

Dwarf Puffer Poop

Hello All Joined the forum for a bit of help with my Dwarf Monty. Iv had him 4 years so isnt a young fish and he's tough as old boots. Moved tanks 3 times, survived a tank crash, survived a cycle etc. But I noticed something today, admittedly I have never kept an eye on his poop over the last 4 year...
