Hi all,
I am just wondering if I was to go and catch crabs would it be safe to feed them to my fahaka?

Re: feeding fahaka
You should freeze them first to kill off any parasites.

Re: feeding fahaka
some one told me to put those stuff u catch in a tank for 1 week before freezing them, so the things u catch will poo out all the bad stuff before they get eaten.

Re: feeding fahaka
sounds logical.
The woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang the best. Use the talents you possess.

Re: feeding fahaka
If you wanted to feed them live to your puffer could you treat them for IP's like you would your fish, or is it different?

Re: feeding fahaka
They have creams for that kind of stuff now, but I must say your willingness to share you crabs with your puffer is a very frugal decision during these difficult economic times.
Just kidding! Your queston gave me a chuckle!
I usually get blue snow crab, freeze it, then I tear or break off chunks for my puffs. My puffs are smaller so I hammer the chunks a little.
