Prepping for new babies!

Post by Leon&Pen »

Hello,

I have a brackish tank at SG 1.010 cycling right now for two 2.5 inch GSP's coming in the mail. I am wanting to make sure I do everything needed so that they have the best set up possible.
Their tank has multiple logs and plants to allow hiding spaces as well as free swimming space.
I have snails in the tank that have been breeding so ill eventually have a supply of snails for them to eat. Whenever wanted and give them food to work for.
I purchased frozen blood worms, krill, mysis, and brine shrimp for normal feedings. Nowhere in my town sells half shelled clams, so I was planning on buying fresh clams from the store and halfing them to freeze and have on hand every week for feeding to help with teeth trimming. I was wondering if this sounds like a good plan? I was also wondering if I could get shelled shrimp for them to rip apart for teeth care? If not is there any other foods reccomended to help with their teeth?

Thank you for any help as I am so excited for these little guys!

I'm not sure why you started two separate threads with questions for the same fish? Let's keep it to one to thread, please.
