Dixon1990 Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 How much should i feed figure 8 puffers each day? Is it bad for them to eat so much they get really fat and stay at the bottom of the tank and not really move for 30min or so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidb Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 I feed my puffer by the size of his belly and definatly not every day. Because my guy is a big boy and fully grown I only ever feed him once every 2 or 3 days. He will pig out on food and you will see his belly puff up with food. then a couple of days later he should be ready for feeding again... have you trained yours to handfeed? it makes it alot easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon1990 Posted September 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 i will try to train them to hand feed when they go in a tank just for them. What would be a good size tank for 2 figure 8's? They are only 3-4cm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
