Fahaka - Feeding question
Fahaka - Feeding question
So I recently found this play that sells crayfish for $3.99 / pound. So that is about 15 or so medium size crayfish. That is such a great deal considering I used to pay $1 each. Only thing is that I have to setup a tank for them.. Anyway, how often should I feed my puffer crayfish? He is on a diet of mussels, prawn, dried krill and occasional crab legs right now.

Re: Fahaka - Feeding question
My fahaka Kaiser gets crayfish about once every 2 weeks. In between he gets his regular feedings of shrimp and snails but I don't feed him daily. Probably every 3 days or so. He is 9 inches long. When he does get crayfish depending on size he will eat 5-6 of them in the course of 2 days or so. I drop them all in there at once then he picks them off at his discretion. After his feasting he gets a heavy duty water change.

How big is the puffer?
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."
