Fahaka snails?

I have an empty 20 gallon that I want to set up as a snail propagation tank. I'm setting this up well in advance of the Fahaka so that I will have a good supply. What should I try to ptopagate Ramshorn or common pond? When a Fahaka gets really big, like full grown, will they eat those big a$$ 4 inch...

Good atricle, thanks. That will work while he is small, but what type of snails do you feed when a Puffer hits the 1-2 foot mark? I have seen Giant Apple snails, would they be good? I wish I could just find a reputable grocery list for feeding a Fahaka.

Breeding snails?

I have an empty 20 gallon I want to use for breeding snails. I want to breed snails to feed to the Fahaka Puffer I plan on getting. What type of snails would be best? and how do I breed them?

Pufferpunk, your bio says you have Plecos in with your Fahaka, how is that possible? Everything I have read says Fahakas will destroy anything in their path?

Great! sounds like I finally made up my mind. I was leaning toward Piranha, but heard they were not very interatcive. My tapwater ph is 8.3, do I need to lower it to keep a Fahaka or will it aclimate to it??

Fahaka Puffers?

Hello, I have an empty 180 and think I would like a Fahaka. I have a Porc. and he is awesome, very interactive, are F/W puffers like the Fahaka the same?? Do they have "personality"?? any advice about their care and feeding etc?? 180 is big enough yes?
