Medicine Cabinet for puffer fish keeping
Posted: Wed Aug 19, 2020 4:54 pm
Hello fellow puffer fans,
I'm about to get Irrubescos (tank is currently cycling) and I was wondering which drugs you are using preventive for new puffers, which illnesses are common for red-eye puffers and which drugs may be useful to have at home.
Currently all I have is beta-glucan for my shrimp. I've read somewhere people also use it for fish but I did not do my homework yet and looked up if that makes sense.
Also I was wondering if you use vitamin supplements or something like that? Some people use garlic apparently and obviously gut-loading is a good idea, but what are you using for that? Just vegetable or also vitamin supplements?
I know there's probably no 'right' way to do it and people have different experience with different things, so I'm just hoping for some input and fruitful discussions.
