Best dwarf puffer food

hm wonder where I can find snails that small

Get a 5g and a sponge filter. Get some pouch snails (Physas sp.) and overfeed it. You should have enough supply for your puffer.

Pouch snails are still quicker. Depending on the humidity and temperature, mystery snails take longer to hatch.

Pouch snails are fine in any tanks, no matter the decors. Once you drop them in a tank, they begin laying dozens of egg sacs containing dozens of baby snails in each sac. Pouch snails are often found hitchhiking among plants. They become a nuisance when they breed in large numbers.
