Hello again!
I have ramshorn snails in an extra aquarium. I always crush them and put them in the tank to the little GSP babies who eat them afterwards.
Is there another way to teach them, how to eat living snails so that I do not have to crush them anymore?
I am sorry if this topic already exists but the search function isn't working!
Thanks

Once they know they are food they should just eat them, just make sure they are the size of the puffers eye.
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Slightly bigger should be fine, my fahaka has managed apple snails the size of his head. I wouldn't recommend this though lol
