Valentini puffer food variety

[marcopolo204]

Hey so I have a pretty juvenile Valentini in my tank. About 3 weeks old with me. He had a battle with Ick but passed it through with help from some power feeding. A Frozen Shrimp, Garlic, Nori mixture I had made. Ratio is probably 8 to 1 shrimp to Nori. He was a little finicky at first and was just picking at the rocks for the first bit. In time however he started devowering the mixture I made. With this said I know he is to be fed mainly proteins shrimp etc. However today I through a sheet of purple Nori on my mag float and he seems to love it. My question if any is should I rotate from leafy greens to meats like this. I was thinking less protein my water quality will be better and amonia levels will be lower. Thoughts? Oh yes Diddy is hungry for answers as well.[emoji324] [emoji226] [emoji173]

hard shells like clams for his teeth. He looks good though! I've wanted a puffer but it wont mix well with my current fish. =[

This one is very friendly. Hasn't touched my mushrooms, leaves the inverts alone, and doesn't get to big so I dont worry about him eating the chromis. Make size 18 cm.
