New Puffer Owner (Palembang)

Post by welshstyles »

Hi i got a Palembang puffer today I’ve had my tank set up waiting for one for a while. Does anyone have any advice on what to feed them and getting them to eat? I’ve put a cooked mussel in there and prawn but no interest as of yet. The prawn is just Sat on his head lol any tips on care etc helpful. Thanks
