The Puffer Forum

ok, so so if i understand it right adding the salt and upping the temp with the water changes as described will fix the ick?

so you are talkin about the PimaFix and MelaFix post?

not quite sure which one you are talkin about...could i get a link?

well i may have found a possible clue to my problem all along or at least i am hoping so. i got up to tinkle and on my way back to bed i sat down to smoke and watch some of the early morning activities under the moon lights and there to my surprise under the soft blue glow where tiny lil white spots...

well i dont know what to do here but something is up, my second GSP was dead this evening when i got home but was not acting unusual this morning. i am begining to wonder if there was something wrong with them from the begining because everyone else is doin fine. the only prob i am still having is m...

gotcha, would my 45g be big enough for 2 modestus? prolly not!

never mind, i found it, it just didn't load completely the first time i went there!

I can't find the article in the library on food for the puffers, can i get a link?
