Always use Melafix 1st & also with other meds. I hope he gets better soon!

UPDATE:

We finally got a new tank for the GSP's. & we went ahead and started adding salt. SG at 1.002 at the moment.

We found this very neat Fish store, where the employee's are like fish experts! So they recommended I use Triple Sulfa (anti-bacterial) & so far so GOOD!
My sick GSP is already showing improvement, and apparently he had other issues, because his whole body seems to be clearing up to normality. He seems happier, and alot greener:) Cloudy (red eye) is starting to get better as well....

YAAAAAAAAAYYY

Also, since we just moved the GSP we went ahead and started cleaning out the other tank. (where they ate the fat goldfish).....& as we were cleaning, we found our algae eater.....DEAD. & eaten up as well......so my GSP's were busy in their last days as they said their goodbye's to their tank mates.

(no wonder they wouldn't eat at all today!!!! One fat goldfish & an algae eater over 2 days)........

I used to use cheap gold fish as scavenger to eat up the excess food but realise that they produce way too much waste.. So I remove them. if your puffer have a taste for goldfish, pls do not have them as tank mates anymore.. They are fatty and can be hard for them to digest. Good to hear that the little guy is doing well!
