Targets?

Post by Adventim »

It's been a long while since I visited back to the forum since my last post (a few weeks back) and I've been doing some heavy studying. Now, I was once looking at getting an Irrubesco (which is still a possibility), but I've also looked up some stuff on the Fang's Puffer. It seems like it would live good in my 10g. What do you think? Plus, how frequently should I feed it snails to prevent overgrowth of teeth?

I think a 15g would be better for a 3" fish.

In response to your snail feeding question, Target's don't seem to suffer from excessive tooth growth as some of the other puffer families. Crunchy foods are still required but you wouldn't need to feed them loads of snails to keep them from getting a massive set of chompers.
