The Puffer Forum

I have my mappa puffer for about a year and a half now he doesn't eat snails or clam on a half shell .. Long story short his teeth are to long (they don't look that long) untill I seen he's having problems eating .. Any one have experience in puffer teeth trimming ? Thanks

I'm sorry to say our Library here is down right now. Here is a link to the article that should be posted there. It has since been updated though. I had suggested using clove oil in the past, but since then, we have discovered it ceases breathing, causing brain damage--especially in smaller, weaker species. I now suggest using MS222 (Finquel) to tranquilize a fish.
