The well being of the puffer is my only concern. I am worried that the puffer would just hunt them non stop until it gorges itself to death. I am surprised that yours didn't eat them live though.

I have a tank filled with hundreds of ramshorn snails. Would a pea puffer eat itself to death if I put one there? I am not trying to get rid of the snails. I am just wondering if a pea puffer has a self restraint not to gorge itself to death. Thank you.

Great. Thank you.

Thank you. Other fish don't seem to have any. The problem is that it was pretty much invisible without my lighting directly shining on her from overhead (I am not even sure if she has any now cuz she avoids areas with strong lighting). I couldn't even see them when I pointed my flashlight at her from the side. My CPDs are constantly moving around in their shiny tiny bodies, so I can't see any. I don't see any on my Honey Gourami but he is bright yellow. BUT, these two Gouramies have been flashing occasionally (maybe once a day against largest leaves I have during my presence but never repeatedly.)

Thank you. Thank you. I guess I will keep using Ich-X while waiting for the others to arrive. I couldn't find them in stores around my area.

I found a better pic. She is only about 1.5 inches. I also found a small bump on the 2nd pic (the red arrow) that seems like a different issue if it's not normal. The brownish circles behind her eyes seem to be normal because some random pictures from Googling also have them.

Thank you.

My gourami has very tiny spots that are hard to see. I am guessing they are too small to be ich. They are also barely visible when there is no direct light overhead. I went to the store couple days ago since I live close by. I showed the first picture to the staff and he suggested Velvet. He also mentioned that I should email the store to get more info on this. I assumed it would be on the website but I don't see one so I am posting on this forum instead. I bought Ich-X and she is being treated. Nitrate: 20 Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 pH: 6.8 Kh: 3 Gh: 6 Temperature: was in low 70 but in high 70 now. Thank you.
