I was wondering if anyone here has kept them? I would EVENTUALLY like to try keeping them - maybe in a couple years once I have my own place, and after I get a little more practiced at keeping simpler fish. I understand they eat mostly snails, with small live foods. One of my teachers has a 20 gal tank that is practically wall to wall with small snails. I was wondering if one could set up a five gallon bucket with a sponge filter and heater and keep snails in there? Do snails need live algae - like the kinds that grows when you put your tank in front of a window? Or can they eat commercial foods? I know nothing about keeping snails but if I want to get puffers I guess I better learn! I'm just facinated by them - but I know it's over my head right now
