Hi Ethan , Aris,
You both are right, snails prefer eat snails.
The Seaview puffers are giant ones.
I think they can eat feeders.


Seaview stocks: http://www.sgalibaba.com/search?q=seaview

C328 do carry mini snails S$2 for abt 80 pcs.
If puffers are hungry and no snails around, they will eat worms.
This time round, the puffers just blur blur stare at the other guppies eating the worms.
Maybe they still haven't know that the tubefix worms can be eaten.

I will try to get snails from C328, the new young male worker
told me this week should be coming.
Otherwise hv to go to Chinese Garden / Jur Lake to find.

GG,
Tha's a great n economic idea to rear guppies! The babies will be strong.
Won't the direct sunlight will it heat up the tub even with the plants around? No birds or foreign intruders to visit your balcony?
