Puffer eating snails

Post by JustinPSmith »

Found an old video of my GSP, Don Juan eating a few snails...You can see a few hermit crabs taking cover as he attacks the snails. :D The Hermit Crabs are very aware of where he is in the tank and usually hide as soon as he gets within an inch or so...I think it drives him crazy because he will see them moving and chase them but every time he gets close, they go into their shell. :D Keeps him very stimulated though.

Hes about 2 inches in that video but its old...Hes now about 3 and a half. After a year or so, he started growing much faster and hasnt really slowed down! Seems like every month I can notice a change!
