Chris287 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I heard that most pea puffers have parasites so i'm a little worried because they are my favorite fish. I got a pair of pea puffers 6 months ago 1 month in one of them got a black bump on its head They are not fighting with any other fish they are in a 10 gallon with a rainbow goby and 4 amano. They were not de wormed at the fish store. The other one has some sand sized back bumps too. If it is parasites how should i treat it.The other one has very small black specks I don't know if it is the coloration or a parasite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverseen2prettybestfriend Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I am not very educated on pea puffers and what they are having may be a regular thing, but have you considered diplopstomiasis? I am not sure on how to treat it but I saw people talking about praziquantel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 As pea puffer are wild caught I would treat for parasites with paracleanse or general cure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
