Hi Everyone, and thank you in advance for any help. My wife just bought a porcupine puffer yesterday, it is in QT now. I noticed today small white specks on its fins. I haven’t seen any on the body, but it is difficult to be certain. He’s a baby (about 2.5 inches in length), so trying to give you size reference of the white spots they are about pin pricks in size, maybe the size of a grain of fine salt. Some of the bigger blotches of white are a concentration of about 10 or so cluttered together, but not touching. The little guy is showing no signs of illness. Eating like a pig. I heard they can get stress spots, but by know means is fish diagnosis my specialty. If you need more pictures just request. Thank you all again!
