Earthworms?

Post by Natty »

I know you can feed them earthworms, but how often? Also, what about other stuff like mealworms?

Also, how do u know bait shops don't put stuff in their earthworms that might harm your puffer?

Is there any known fahaka puffer that doesn't take nonliving bait? My fahaka ate frozen bloodworms okay but now he won't take it anymore and I'm going to the bait store right now...
