When I feed muscles...... if the outside is facing up, my puffers do not see it !!!!

but if the outside is facing down, they are all over it - and then if it flips, so the outside is up again, he again goes away and acts like its not even there

That's funny!

In the meantime, maybe you'll find some more cheaper ones locally.

My puff does that to with calms. Try feeding clams they like those too!

My puffers LOVE dried krill. I use the large ones for my modestus, and the really tiny ones for the irrubesco.

So far it's the only thing they will eat besides bloodworms. Mussels were a no-go with mine, and I haven't been able to obtain blackworms from anyone yet. I think they eat live snails. I've got a small snail breeder tank that allows me to give them a few small ones each week. Except for the olive nerites, eventually all snails end up as empty shells, so I assume the puffers are eating them.
