Puffers Thread 2

i feed my puffer crayfish only twice... but stop givin them now until my fahaka is bigger as fellow bro say might cause indisgestion when the puffer is still young? my gsp ard the size my fahaka can only suck out the meat... unlike fahaka... just 1 bite a part of the shell n meat is gone... fierce...

cos mw or sw is not part of its natural diet..

fish will accept them cos
- the food is tasty?
- they are hungry?
- they got no other choice of food to eat?

later on..
the fish reject the food cos
- they are sick of its taste?
- the food causes discomfort to their bodies?
- they are too full?

Think abt it.. I also dunno abt the composition of sw or mw.. haven't google it.. (heard they are high in fat )

but I will stick to crustacean diet for my puffer
