African (Malawi) cichlid tank. 75 gallons, established. PH 7.5-8.0. Chichlid salt used. No plants, only rockscape. Bought 6 puffers ~8 weeks ago. Feed mosquito larvae, brine shrimp, krill. I feed them once a day. Occasionally skip a day. Also pellet, flake, cichlid food. The puffers don't seem to eat these. No signs of illness. No proble
ms with other fish in the tank. Found three of the puffers dead, two days ago. One is now sick. THe other two lay on the bottom but seem to have revived and are swimm
ing around None of them have looked sick- no ich, fungus, etc. Help. I really like these guys and am not sure what to do. Is the Ph too high for them? Not enough or too muh salt? No cover? Wrong food? looked them up on the
net but cannot find the answers to these questions. I have a community tank and a guppy tank I could move them to if the ph is an issue (they are 7.0)- but if so, how do you do it without shocking them by the ph change? Any suggestions would be appreciated.Advice needed for sick drawf (freshwater) puffers.?
dwarf puffers could be taking each other out -- they aren't very social and are better with heavy plants if kept in groups. from my understanding they are salt sensitive anything over a teaspoon and 1/2 in 10 gallons would be a problem.Advice needed for sick drawf (freshwater) puffers.?
Puffers should have absolutely no salt content. They are also solitary fish and would have double the stress in this big, stocked tank.
kill it. If you touch it then u will grow a fin and ure legs will be gone and then u will have a huge head and then u will eat something and it will mutate inside of u and you will become a fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
