My girlfriend has three dwarf puffers that won't eat anything except blackworms and snails - any ideas on getting them to accept frozen foods, without slowly starving themselves?
Thanks!

Re: Dwarf puffer feeding
Have you tried frozen blood worms? You can hold them with tweezers initially in the tanks current to make them look like they are alive.

I used to feed mine frozen bloodworm and litle pieces of cockle.
