Puffer Food

[Sliceofbeef]

Hi,

Soon to get a figure eight puffer (as you can probably guess by the amount of topics I've posted!)

I will feed it cockles and snails and whatever to keep it's teeth (do they have teeth?) trimmed. But my LFS also sell frozen lance fish, whole. They look like frozen tetras. Will they eat this?

Thanks

George

Depending on the Puffer they will eat pretty much anything, my Fig8's get snails mainly, tubifex, bloodworm, live shrimp, brine shrimp, etc etc etc..
occasionally sand eels, and Krill

He will eat them, but they will not keep his beak (puffer equivalent of teeth) trimmed. Mussels are also good foods to feed them.
