    Should I put my puffer out of his misery?

    My poor dogface puffer has been sick for about 3 weeks. Not sure what it is, have been following the local aquarium store's advice but he is just wasting away, hasn't eaten in probably 2 weeks. He has these white pimple like bumps all over his back. They said it was stress related, not a...

    Puffer pulling fin into gill, and tiny white dots of fins

    Oh great... well what about this Copper Safe stuff I just dumped in there yesterday, will that not help? I have an empty tank that I guess I could use to QT them, but would like to be sure before I go through all that. Can I get some more opinions (no offense quarryshark, I appreciate that you...

    Puffer pulling fin into gill, and tiny white dots of fins

    Follow up.... the past 2 days he is now acting sick. It almost looks like he has been dusted with a shimmery gold powder, like those ladies makeup that are supposed to give you a heathy radiant glow? However it's not having that affect on him. I looked at a bunch of medicines at the LFS and...

    Combatibility Question - Blue Jaw Trigger

    Thank you :) I don't know if my blue jaw is sick, or if it is a fish that just hides all the time. She is constantly behind the rocks, she has not eaten for me yet, I have tried feeding with the light on and with it off and she doesn't even come out to investigate the food. The only time I...

    Combatibility Question - Blue Jaw Trigger

    I have a 150gal tank with 150lbs of LR, a 2 year old dogface puffer, a recently acquired Lunar Wrasse and Miniatus Grouper. I just introduced a Blue Jaw Trigger yesterday and wanted to ask if anyone had opinions on the compatibility of these guys. Nobody has even acknowledged the trigger's...

    Puffer pulling fin into gill, and tiny white dots of fins

    I have a 150gal tank with a dogface puffer, a lunar wrasse, a miniatus grouper and a blue jaw trigger. I am writing about my puffer. For some weeks now he has has these little tiny white dots on his fins and his eyes have been somewhat milky looking with what could possibly be dots on them as...

    Dogface Puffer biting LR & Problem with Wrasse

    I have a 2yr old Dogface Puffer. Today I watched him diving into the liverock, biting it, over and over and over. I have never witnessed him doing this before and wondered if anyone can explain this behavior. It made me wonder if he is trying to trim down his beak? I read something...

    Fish dying 1 by 1, erratic swimming only sign

    Update - We went to the LFS and had our water tested, and everything was normal except the PH was really low, it was like 6.0. They recommended doing several water changes over the next few days to raise it gradually, and we are treating the tank with Kanacyn which she said was a broad spectrum...

    Ideas for new tankmate for Lionfish/Dogface Puffer

    When you say fresh shrimp, do you mean the kind you buy at the grocery store? How big are we talking here, and do they require any preparation? I know nothing about seafood, sorry LOL And what is Zoe? I use Garlic Extreme now, is it similar? I have seen them selling frozen silversides at my...

    Fish dying 1 by 1, erratic swimming only sign

    Well we have an air pump with two 9inch airstone bars in the tank now, but when we had the 75gal up and running it also had two 9inch airstone bars and two additional mini airstone inside decorations. My fiance is the bubble king LOL I think it's too much but he likes it. Is this enough or...

    Fish dying 1 by 1, erratic swimming only sign

    Well I'm at a lost for what to do. I am watching two fish now (1 barb and 1 guarami) as they swim in circles. The barb has been at it for over an hour and is going upside down, etc. I just noticed the guarami swimming in circles a second ago so he's probably not far behind. One of the...

    Fish dying 1 by 1, erratic swimming only sign

    Over the past 4-5 weeks, my freshwater tank population has been cut almost in half. I bought some new fish at my LFS and didn't QT. A few days later, 3 of the new barbs were dead. Since then we have been losing fish here and there for no apparent reason. No physical signs of disease, all...

    Milky White Stuff Blowing Around Like Cobwebs?

    Actually this was a brand new tank that we just filled on Tuesday. Our local aquarium store came out and set it up, filled it, and we used that live wet sand (can't remember the brand) with the bacteria already in it, which is supposed to allow you to add fish the same day. We waited about...
