|
|
Hi, I'm new to the board.
I just recently purchased a few figure 8 puffers. So I was wondering what food i can feed them. (i got recommended some frozen cockerills), so I purchased them, I was wondering what else I could possibly feed them. I heard there beaks get long and can dye! So what type of snails can I feed them. (I live in U.K). Anyways thanks.

| I believe any small snails would do. Figure 8's are brackish and from what I've heard tend to be kinda picky in their diet like most brackish fish. |

Cheers for the information. Will my L.F.S (Local fish shop) sell snails? Do fish aquarium business sell them etc. Thanks for your help anyways.
P.S I managed to get them to feed from my hand today! |
