Please read the IP article in our Library.

I use a treatment that won't kill your snails, or crabs (if you have any) ..... it's made by Waterlife .... it's called "Octozin". But keep in mind that you need to do it for 3 days for it to be completely effective. I've not had any bad results from it, and I've used it on my MBU, Palembang, Baileyi, Abei, Suvattii, GSP's and Ceylons - just to show that I've used it on many different puffers with no bad effects.
You can get it off eBay too.

Good luck, and hope your puffer is better soon!

Even better, is to soak their food in the med & then it won't affect the other inhabitants.
