The Puffer Forum

My schouti's are a little more plump than yours....more like that first video you listed of someone else's on Youtube. I feed every day with one fasting day, so you might try that instead of the every other day feeding?

I've bumped up to daily feedings now.

Hi Magpie,

Thank you for your post. It is looking very healthy as already noted. If the photo was taken right after feeding I would say you could feed a little more. I recently just had to change my feeding cycle as mine grew out of the pre-portioned blocks I had been using, I would recommend sheets, if you are using frozen, and to keep a small pair of nippers so you can break off what you need.

Happy Puffing,
Joe

Thanks! I am feeding snails, frozen bloodworms, live blackworms, and frozen krill. I was looking into trying clams also.

He's happier with daily feedings for sure.

I have fed a few assassin and trumpet snails but I crush them first for him. Ramshorn/pond are much better.
