The Puffer Forum

Update. He has returned to his normal self. And i will be looking for a sponge. Thank you for you gelp! Really apreciate it

Will it slow how fast the filter suck up the water?

When i moved him out of quarintine he got 75% better. This is a new tank i put him in. So it could be stress from that. Hes been staying well away from the filter now. He is still shaking a bit. But at least hes swimming better

When he swims he looks like a falling maple seed

10 gallon fake plant filled. He has two tank mates that never touch him. The temperture is 77°-79°. Ph is around 6.8- 7.2 (using strips) alkalinity is low (around 40 ppm) watwr is very hard (300 ppm). No nitrate and no nitrite.

My pea puffer got caught on the filter and is now injured. He is in a quarintine tank and is either laying down or not swimming properly. Is there anything i can do for him???
