Re: Theory A: Fahaka will eat anything!
Wow, reading all these great posts makes me want to get a Fahaka now. I can picture all the lip sucking and tail waging and it makes me smile. Are they fresh, brackish or marine puffers?

I had a professional photographer over at my house taking pics of my tanks. Got some great action shots of Filbert & his friends eating giant shrimps.

We need to see those!
Seriously!

It is absurd to talk of one animal being higher than another. We consider those, when the cerebral structure/intellectual faculties most developed, as highest. A bee doubtless would when the instincts were.

Re: Theory A: Fahaka will eat anything!
What about crickets?
I know people who feed crickets to their oscars and I have read that you can feed them to puffers too once in a blue moon...
Summer is coming and those guys love to invade my house and keep me up all night. Any thoughts on this or should I only feed the LFS ones?

I feed wild caught grasshoppers and crickets all the time.. just make sure your lawn hasn't been treated by any chemicals (pesticides, weed killers, fertilizer, etc).
