Raising/Breading Food for Porcs

[studmaster]

Hey guys and gals!

I'm trying to get some different types of food for my Porcs. I've read the article in the Library. Right now I'm breeding worms (yeah like that's tough to do...aka composter), and they love them....but I would like to get as close to their natural diet as possible. Anyone have any luck breeding any saltwater snails, or types of shrimp that they would normally eat? I can easily breed freshwater snails and drop them in, but they don't move much and probably die pretty quickly in full saltwater.

FW snails AFAIK are a good diet for SW puffers. The snails are not expected to survive any way. As long as they are nutritious and not junk food they should be fine. But, I'd wait to hear other opinions on the matter.

It would be ideal if there were some saltwater "food" I could raise in my sump and then move some to the main tank every now and then in order to keep the porcs interested.
