I finally found a green spotted puffer yesterday, the cutest thing. had to have him. i have read up lots of these little guys, how to care for them etc. (temp, ph, food etc) But I wanted to know, how often do i give them snails. I just wanted to clarify it because the guy i talked to at the lfs said I only have to feed him snails 2-3 times a week. is this true? he's eating the same food as the other fish in the tank (guppies, mollies, swordtails, dragon goby and bumble bee gobies.....i know i know....we are looking into setting up a seperate tank for him) we feed them bloodworms, brine shrimp, tubifex worms and I picked up some frozen krill which the puffer seems to like. I do have some ramshorns in the tank and i have seen him eat a couple of them but i need to know how many to feed him, and how often.
we're setting up a seperate tank for snails...and breeding guppies. i have 4 adult guppies, 2 juvis and like 40 fry, which i dont want. i've talked to a few people who breed their guppies and feed their puffers the fry...is this cruel or are there lots of people who do this? lol
and how old/big should he be to start acclimating him to brackish water? and then full marine (he'll be in his own tank before it gets full marine)?
here's a pic of the little guy
any advice/comments please tell me! thanks!
