The Puffer Forum

Hello again,

So I finally got a hold on some prazipro. Ive been soaking Swayzes food monday-wednesday for two weeks now. First few days after treatment his poop is completly normal - no more white strings! But then 4-5 days later the white stringy poop is back!! Should I keep feeding him praziPro or should I try something else?

How does he look?

He is a bit (very!) camerashy, but I managed to take two pictures wher you can see his belly. I think he looks a bit rounder?
He is very happy and eats well.
His poop look a lot better since I started with the prazipro. But then a few days after treatment, the white strings are back.

Here are the pics.

At this point, keep feeding him healthy meaty foods soaked in Vita=chem & see if he fattens up. Stringy poop isn't ALWAYS a sign of IPs. Emaciation is a better indication & he looks better.

+1 to PP. I wouldn't worry too much. I currently have one abt the same size. Looks fine to me. Just need to fatten it up a bit.

Thank you. Will let you know how he gets on

Hello again,

I managed to get a picture of the stringy poop. Its like its got bubbles in it and a big lump at the end. What do you think, guys?

Oh and these picturs were taken about an 1,5 hours after eating 3 small snails.

I think he looks great!

Thank you. I dont want to overreact and worry for no reason, but he means the world to me! Never have I studied so much poop. My boyfriend thinks Ive gone mad. "Look at this poop" "what do you think about this poop" "does this poop look normal to you". Hmm... I must be mad
