TTM or hypo for lionfish/puffer/snowflake eel?

[coolxborg]

Whats the best method to use for these fish?

- Mombassa Lionfish
- Valentini Puffer
- Snowflake Eel

This will be a 75 gallon FOWLR, but wondering what method to use for Ich.

Im a little worried to use TTM (ive used for fish in my reef tank), since i may alarm the puffer or get stung by the lionfish or not sure if TTM works on eels.

Pls let me know if hypo is the best way or suck it up and do TTM.

I've done TTM on a valentini puffer and also a blue spot puffer with no issues.

TTM is also good to be used for eels. Make sure there are no small holes as they will surprise you with what they can escape from.

What did you use to transfer the puffers? A square colander?


And thanks Duke4life. Ill use TTM for the snowflake.

Yes, square colander.
