This probably nothing new for owners with puffers. My puffer is new, had a few days and is covered in ick. Any ideas for the best meds?

My salt is ninety gallons and is four by two in dimensions. It has a large lionfish and snowflake eel with live rock. I have had the puffer for only four days. I have started the treatment with freshwater bath and maracide with Mal green. The puffer is in a medium critter keeprer for iso.

Try Rx.P by Kent Marine. This is a treatment for marine fish. You may treat the tank or use it as a dip. I use it as a dip for my puffers and have had good luck with this. 1 gallon of saltwater to a cap full med for 15 in. Good luck!
