de-worm the fella , parzi gold or even interpet no9/ internal bacteria will do the trick as since its a new purchase high chance of internal bacteria since puffer is prone to that .

Most reputable LFS carry it,depend which area of LFS you always visit.
West side is C328,polyart.Central area can go Wuhu.

Not so bro. Swimming space was limited and swimming very little.

do frequent 20 to 30 % WC as observed they behave happily in good waters, feeder wise none is safe MP, cockles and once its bigger feed them crayfish.

To attract it is live GS but if it kana IP then no use at all.When it is healthy it feed on frozen GS also.
I got four pcs of FAhaka treated for two day but no sign of IP as it eat everyday,lost two Mbu in the pass due to IP and unknown disease.

thx for ur replies bros...

the mbu is more active since last nite. i have 2 ceylon puffers 5", the mbu 4" and the 2 mini fahaka in my 2.5x2ft tank. yesterday afternoon i remove partition separating the mbu n ceylon puffers. by evening the mbu is more active n relaxed... they dun fight, even the mini fahaka seems to be doing well. but the mbu still not feeding yet. did 30% wc last nite though but did not add the parzi gold - should i continue to add the parzi gold?

and i did get some gs n put some in the tank. did not see mbu eating, but the other 2 bigger puffers are enjoying the gs...

can i get another mbu n comm them together? plan to remove the ceylon puffers when the mbu is bigger... u guys think comming the mbu will work?
