Re: feeding time..
looks like a good dinner! make sure to freeze them though to kill off any nasty parasites or something that might harm the puffer. then soak in tank water with vitamin supplement for a while(some people soak overnight while its sitting in the fridge), good to go
you can also try crab legs and scallops. i did a mix of raw shrimp, clams, crabs and some frozen cubed food as treats(bloodworms, mussel, squid, clam, mysis). my gsp wasnt a big fan of scallops or mussels on the shell. but for some reason loved the frozen cubed mussels
