Still thinking about getting a south American puffer just wonder what kind of care is needed for them? and When it's time to trim their teeth how would I go about doing that?

Here is a link if you haven't seen it already. You don't necessarily have to trim if
you feed snails are small mussels or the like. This will wear down the teeth.

I still had to trim my puffers beak despite a regular diet of snails. These puffers have the fastest growing beak of any puffer. If you need more help PM PufferPunk- she is great with the info. If she is not on this forum, check on Aquaria Central- she is on there. She helped me with the trimming on my SAP. Oh yeah, if you find them somewhere, PM me please.
I got mine at Walgreens. Since that article has been written, it has been discovered if you use CO multible times on a fish, it may develop brain damage, due to the fact that the fish stops breathing under the influence of this product & there is lack of O2 to the brain. I found that the product FINQUEL is much safer.
