Making Sure Puffers Eat Snails

Post by Chakla »

I just recently became the proud parent for a couple GSPs but I cant seem to get them to eat snails. They are only about an inch long right now, does anyone have some tips on how to get them to eat them?

Not to worry... there are plenty of other foods to offer it:
