I have always had the puffer bug really ever since I saw my first Dog Face Puffer that a buddy of mine had. He was hard core into Salt Wate fish tanks and had his own system built with pvc pipe, DIY skimmers, filters, sump systems it was ridiculous; unfortunately he lost power when on vacation once and his system crashed hard because it was one of those very harsh winters in new york and he hasn't had the heart to rebuild it. He becomes very attached to his fish as if with the death of each it's like the death of a child.

So when I even saw the possibility of getting a FW one I wanted him, albeit not prepared. The MelaFix is having a tremendous effect on him, he is swimming with both fins again and as fast as usual; there are only about 3 of the ghost shrimp out of the 10 I got him left and when he's done I'll give him some frozen blood worms.
