:D Thank u can't wait for the new F8 article.

I bought him freeze dried krill today and soaked it in the meds. He was like what da hell's this? I gave some to my F8 and he wouldn't touch it either. However, I also picked up some live mealworms and soaked one in them meds (Parasite Clear tabs by Jungle) for a few mins along with some tiny snails. Yummy Yummy in his tummy! I think I'll drop a tablet in his tank tonight.
PUFFER RULES
Do not take your Puffer out of water (you can kill them)
Change water at least 1x a week
Change water immediately if there is high Ammonia/Nitrite/Nitrate
Monitor water levels (PH, Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate, SG,etc.)
Give your Puffer snails to wear down his/her teeth
Soak dry food with tank water/vitamin water
When buying a Puffer look for one with a fat belly

Mealworms aren't really good for puffers, make sure they are only an occasional snack.
No matter how magnificent your successes or devastating your failures, the worlds' approximately 5 billion impoverished people could not possibly care less.
