Hi I am a newbe to Marine, I live in Wales, although I have had a freshwater tank for nearly 3 years. I have a vallentini puffer fish, purple fire fish, clownfish and yellow silver belly wrasse. My puffer I can suddenly see bits in his fins, but he seems perfectly healthy and happy and I have the white grainy sand on the base of my tank, and there is always white bits off my base flying around the tank. So I'm unsure, should I be treating my puffer or could it just be bits caught in his fins ? Thank you for letting me join us the forum. I look forward to meeting like minded people x

Never trust big puffers. The fingers you save may be your own. -RTR

Could be just irritations from the rocks in there. I never treat for this but you could add marine Melafix.
