Please help. Need food advice for my figure 8

Post by Jvaccaro »

I've had my figure 8 for 6 weeks now. She eats frozen blood worms and sun dried Krill with the shells. I need foods to help her teeth growth. I can't find any pond snails around, and all Nerite snails around here are too large for her. She shows interest in them but won't go in for a try. She does eat live ghost shrimp when I can find them. I've read ramshorn snails are good for her but my tank is brackish and read they are fresh water only. Any advice other than raising my own snails would be very helpful and appreciated. I already have 3 fish tanks and no room for another to raise snails in. Thanks in advance.
