I've got three amazon puffers for a year + who have never needed their teeth trimmed. I credit it to the Xtreme "big fella" pellets. They LOVE them and have to bite them like they would a snail, it seems to keep their teeth trimmed down naturally.

Thanks for this tip

[@lurklingX]

actually, thank you, that was the first one i've seen from start to finish! and it showed the clove oil and exactly what to expect. i've already decided, when i get some puffs i'm going to order from you.

[@kelleyforeman]

Another reason to keep rainbows! 😜 Great seeing Jonny in another video. I hope he doesn't get so famous he forgets about us! 😆

[@b-e-a-r6166]

It's nice to see some proper husbandry, good job!

[@JPNoelPhD]

Johnny. I am so impressed. Shy and totally into the fish’s comfort and health. Really amazing and top notch video. You are a true fish lover!!!!

[@MridulSinghMusic]

We demand more Jonny!

[@vivienleigh4640]

I think I'd need a sip of that clove oil to even _think_ of doing that

[@JPNoelPhD]

BTW - You all do a fantastic job. Hats off to Dan and you all. Nothing like it I have seen in tropical fish business and I am getting up there in “age”! 😉

[@damage_jack]

Nice Jonny! Great to see some of the Fishmonger Crew in these videos! Dan you should give the Crew more opportunities to do a feature or video, if they would want to.

🥰THANK YOU!! We needed this! We have 3 puffers from you and one refuses to eat snails. We have to trim his teeth and it was VERY stressful, I wish we had this for the first time because most information out there is vague.

[@chonsworth9129]

I just did this to my puffers, it worked exactly like shown, I used the same ratios, etc. Everything went well!

[@BigStevesGlassBoxes]

Awesome video! I've always wondered how to do this. Thanks Dan and Jonny!

[@gamaarmendariz1426]

Thanks, Dan. Love your content, and I just bought a trio of puffers a couple weeks ago and I’m still nervous around them, they are so skittish. Your videos have made me a bit more confident in keeping them.

[@steveallen3845]

Good one !!!

[@Seven7ails]

Yey! A Dans fish video 😂haha

[@m72e592863]

Very nice.

[@RikoStan]

Hi Jonny.

[@ryanrogers8211]

Awesome

[@Gibbypastrami]

Did you put them in a different tank afterwards? Or just trim and remove plants? So you had a bucket where you put them after the clove treatment Do you take them from that bucket right to the tank? Or could the clove oil on the fish/in the bucket cross contaminate the main tank and cause issues? Probably not if those two drops did sedation while this would be a much smaller concentration in a much larger volume, just some things I’m curious/concerned about for my puffer I need to do this on soon

[@chrishowell4775]

Just bought 4 Amazon's advertised as pea's and this will help as they are a year and a half and need trimmed

[@chrisfeaka4250]

Nice! I have one that need this bad. Ive been puting it off

[@elvinsworld11]

Nice

[@nathanhoveyaquatics]

I think if/when i need to do this ill play on the side of caution. If i clip to little and need to do it again in a few months would that be ok ?? Thabks gor any advice.

[@johncameron4194]

Interesting

[@SpinsterSister]

This might be a stupid question, but have you ever accidentally clipped too much off, made them bleed or has the entire plate fallen off?

[@DansFish]

Nope. You can feel the clippers behind their teeth and see in the front to avoid cutting them.

[@franciscaz.7956]

hi, what brand of the clove oil do you use?

[@DansFish]

I never looked at the brand, but I got it from GNC if that helps.

[@danrichard9247]

Jhonny Beakman I like it

[@ArtieTheWise]

This is so wild. I only keep peas who don’t need trimming, but I feel much more confident with the possibility having watched this video. Do the fish ever struggle to revive after knocking them out with clove?

[@DansFish]

Some might take a bit longer to get back to normal, but within a few minutes they're good to go. You can see the gill movement steadily increase until they start using their pectoral fins. Once they start using them, recovery goes very fast.
