any 1 no a good IP treatment fow FW puffers?

Jungle Labs makes a product called Parasite Clear that all the gurus seem to recommend. Petsmart has it, and another Jungle product called Internal Parasite Guard. Or basically anything that contains metronidazole and praziquantel, or even levamisole hydrochloride if you can figure out how to get some.

See if you can get praziquantel, otherwise Gel-Tek for IP works good (just make sure to soak the food in it for like half an hour first)

has any 1 herd off this and weather it is any good as its pretty much the only 1 i can find in the uk.

OCTOZIN - flagellated protozoacide.

OCTOZIN is a treatment for internal parasites such as those which cause Sleeping Sickness, Hole - In - The - Head, Seawater Angelfish and Clownfish Disease, Malawi Bloat Disease and also early stages of Dropsy. OCTOZIN may also be used to treat Whitespot in seawater aquaria where CUPRAZIN cannot be used. OCTOZIN is harmless to invertebrates and algae when used as directed. You will require three separate days of treatment to complete the course.
OCTOZIN is active for up to 3 days after the last day of use. Although internal parasites are destroyed instantly, external signs of improvement to the fish may take up to 7 days
