They're my wee babies. So cute & their personalities are coming out more & more now. Best mistake ever made!

Are they eating their snailies yet? I'm having issues with my borneensis, cheeky sod won't eat snails unless I jiggle them

Lou, I've been popping in snails the size of their eyeballs like suggested on most online sites etc. The puffs don't care about them and go out of their way not to bother them, fools!
I have crushed a couple several times. I normally feed the snail off the tweezers then and Naz (the cocky one) has taken them everytime. I don't know how much good they're doing his teeth when they're crushed though.
Although, somebody told me that he's never known SAPs to be particularly fond of Ramshorn snails. The same person said that he had found that SAPs seemed to favour Physa snails. I don't really know what to do at this point. I've been keeping an eye out for Physa snails but can't find them anywhere. I can find any amount of Ramshorn though! I was wondering if maybe they were too young at the moment....they're only about 1 inch long. I'm assuming they're wee babies because they've grown since I got them.

They're adorable. The Physa snail is almost cone shaped and I thought I was meant to always avoid that shape of snail. I think I'll just hope that they come around as the weeks/months go on.

Hmm, maybe they'd fancy nerites? they need salty water to breed but I think you can buy them on ebay. Can't beat a puffer for fussyness

They love everything else they've been given, bloodworms is definitely their favourite! Its just a shame that the one thing I need them to eat, they won't.
