+1 to DGabbs, in England they're called River Shrimp. They sell for roughly £1 for 20

Thank you for reply
I do put feeder shrimp in but don't last long
Also wife feels sorry for them and I get a hard time
Would like something the puffer won't eat

Is your tank full marine, if so you could look into getting a Goatfish. They have whiskers that they use to sieve through the sand.

Have a read here:-

I don't have any personal experience keeping Goatfish and GSP's together and I've found nothing on the net to say if they are compatible. If your GSP is a nice/timid puffer he maybe ok, but be ready to rehome the Goatfish if it doesn't work out

Goatfish grow quite large & like to travel in schools. With GSPs, you're going to have to be sure not to overfeed so there aren't leftovers to clean up & stir the substrate well, before your weekly water changes. That should be enough to keep it clean. There are no BW catfish for your puffer tank.
