question about snails!

[Jimmy038]

ok just a quick one here. So i understand that u just need to feed them ones that are really small and that most people have set up separate tanks to breed them. I was wondering seeing my puffers are just 1 inch, tiny little guys, if I could get away with just trying to breed them in their tank? Like if the snails are big enough the puffers can't eat them right? I'm sure they will try but won't succeed and they can just eat the babies

Unfortunately no, doesn't work like that, they will easily kill the snails, even ones far to big to actually eat.
