The Puffer Forum

Yay! I've had success in finding what to feed my wild caught puffs! I found out by trial and error that cut up pieces of banana prawn work. Many thanks to 'my name is mike' for his Puffer Flix movie of his baby F8 feeding on a piece of prawn - it gave me the idea.

Cheers,

hey , glad that helped -- it's an easy and kinda fun way to feed the little guys

once you get them eatting one food, i think its easier to introduce others -- mine took blood worms first and after a week or two would go for prawn, mysis, frozen krill and of course snails

Yup, same way I taught my fahaka to eat stuff. Seems he was afraid of things too big, like whole frozen shrimp, but very quickly got used to eating whatever I throw in now if its cut up so its not too large.
