Arbarbash Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 We took in a 8-10 month old Fahaka puffer about 2 months ago from another local hobbiest. Its eating great and everything seems to be fine with it, but I just found out that the original owner did not do any worm treatments(or any other meds) to it when it first arrived. Should I take the puffer through meds now? If so what meds? The puffer is in a 150g tank by itself with some pants. It's about 6-7" long and nice and fat with good coloration. It eats everything I put in the tank(claims, muscles, frozen crabs, etc.). Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's eating ok active no signs of a sunken belly good colour I wouldn't treat I would just monitor Fritz expel p active ingredient levamisole paracleanse active ingredient is praziquantel and metronidazole prazipro active ingredient praziquantel fenbendazole are all safe Dewormers for puffer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
