I’ve recently acquired a green spotted puffer and I’ve read online that one of the musts in caring for puffer is keeping their teeth from over growing. Every article I’ve read mentions about snails, I’m just wondering if it is a must? Because I neither have the budget to get equipments to cultivate the snails(I’ve heard they tend to become an infestation or over bloat the puffer if not kept separately), nor the time to fetch fresh live snails every few days(I’m a college student without a car -_-|||). Can I use frozen shrimp from the supermarket? And what other kinds of food can I use to wear down its teeth?
