Hi All,
Ever since I snagged this mappa puffer from DD, he’s always been pudgy and swims with his tail wrapped around his body. He’s been in my QT since Day 1 and I’m using API GC, well, because puffers almost always come with internal parasites plus its poop is white which is symptomatic of intestinal parasites (or so I’ve been told). I’ve been feeding it krill and it’s doing fine until yesterday when it started becoming lethargic. Now it tends to just lay on flat surface and not move much. Does anyone know why it’s pudgy, swims with tail wrapped, and lethargic? Sorry, I’ve never taken care of puffers before so I’d like to know as much as possible.
