I agree 100% , But Each person has to decide for them self! Like I do with all my pets if alot of people say something is bad , you got to think and say maybe theres something there! LOL In the case of Krill , there just to many red flags out there!
After reading this article, I do not doubt that feeding a diet rich in krill is bad. However, a diet with some krill in it is definitely seems healthy. It appears that cockles are a food that we should definitely try to provide for puffers.

I thought I'd mention my 5 year old Ceylon, who is fed frozen krill all the time. No negative side affects. He is also fed an array of other foods, but gets krill on a pretty regular basis.

Yes and no... The hobby is usually a little quicker to react than science. Suppose someone was to say "what's up with that?" then science would have to do studies and research on various test subjects over a period of years (not months), thus what you see in the hobby, although second hand and not verifiable, may still be ahead of the game.
if you follow me, you avoid stepping in the crap that I just did...
