You want raw. Freeze for a few days thaw in vitamin solution.
Crayfish, pond/ram snails, crabs, etc. You don't want it to have a super hard shell like a mts snail.
How big a fahaka are we talking and how long have you had it?

From your supermarkets frozen foods section i used to feed defrosted; Mussels / Shrimps / Crabs legs / shrimp / clams
You can also feed quarantined: Crays / Snails / Clams...
As mentioned above just make sure whatever shelled item you feed isnt too hard or thick that it could break their teeth and you’re good to go...
Earthworms are also a good way to put on some weight and size, but keep up with crunchy foods too...

Does the supermarket stuff have to be raw? I found a bag of clams that are a natural but cooked I believe just boiled in water no other additives.
Definitely try and look for un-cooked if possible, since once cooked you loose some of the nutirents...
If you cant find un-cooked, i would maybe try hitting up an asian market and buy the seafood fresh, then prep it and freeze it youself for use as needed...

I've used them and ebay. i would look locally. My friend and I used these as our main stable for my fahaka/his mbu. Supplementing with other high crunch stuff.
Most def try an Asian market if you have one.
