Since the puffer section doesnt get much action...

Im just wondering what are some Good and Effective ips meds?

Also which company makes them? Looking for something that works with sensitive fish (in my case a fahaka puffer)

Also, one person mentioned epson salt? Has any one been able to beat internal parasites with epsom salt alone?

It depends on what type of internal parasites you're talking about. If you're talking about nematodes, PrazPro is the way to go. If you're looking to cure Hexamita(Main symptom is white stringy poop), the Epsom salt solution is the best IMO, as long as your fish still eats.

Here's a link as to how to treat Hexamita using Epsom Salt. Me and many other FH keepers have tried this method and it has had some positive results.
 
Thanks for the link... I think i found the name for epsom salt in chinese, so going to hunt it down tmr and try it out and see if it helps...
