Setup a separate tank for snails and start breeding them, now cause you will need a constant supply. Check craigslist for a 5-10 gallon tank for them. You can buy snails on aquabid. Ramshorn and pond are the best for puffers.

OMG! So sorry about that! My computer has this horrible habit of not copying things, so I often post the wrong thing. I have really got to start looking at my links better. The only joke here is me lol.
Anyway, before you purchase any fish though, you need to cycle the tank.
LOL!! at least we know you like the glasses. Maybe a pair for the puffer?
if you follow me, you avoid stepping in the crap that I just did...
