Any puffer experts in the lounge? Need help with a sick little fishie
We got some new green puffer fish the other day. One of them doesn't seem to be doing too well. Spends most of the time laying near the bottom. No obvious signs of distress. Just not very active. We was the first couple of days. But now. Not so good.

Anyone have experience with puffers?

1. Aww....
I'm sorry to hear about your sick little guy. They are such cute fish and I find them adorable. I'd check either Yahoo! or Google as there are literally TONS of aquarists out there. Good luck!

3. I am so sorry! Poor little guy!
I don't, but there must be somebody on here who does. Could a vet give you advice? Mine treats everything from birds to mice to squirrels to ferrets to snakes, but I don't know about fish. There must be someone who treats fish. And the first reply is an excellent suggestion. I once posted on a message board devoted exclusively to dogs. There must be ones for fish fanciers, as well! Good luck!:hug:
