The Puffer Forum

1 male, Bullet, 2 females, Bug and DJ. I relized that Bullet had a piece of ich on his tailfin today. (I got them on Friday) My tank is around 82 degrees F but simetimes gets up to 82. I put a small pinch of aquarium salt in today. I'll do very frequent water changes. Will this get rid of his ich? I can't use meds on puffers, right? I don't want them to !!

It does run it's cycle & may not get any worse. I see a spot here & there on some of my fish on occasion. I haven't treated for it in >20 years.

It seems that you can totally eradicate ich from your tank and its not always there. you could try the salt method. Read that article it gives alot of insight good luck

Read the article in the Library on ich. That should help a lot.
