Hi.
I have a 46 gallon Reef and I"m going to attempt to add a Valentini puffer. I'm aware that it may eat my shrimp/snails/crabs/corals, but I'm gonna try it anyway. From my reading, it's hit or miss, but more cases have a positive result.
My question is:
I understand that you have to feed clams or mussels, or shelled foods so the fish can wear down it's teeth, BUT does that mean it will eat a clam (like a maxima)? Is it more or less a certainty??
I don't see why it would eat an "normal" clam and not a maxima, but maybe (hopefully) i'm missing something. Is it the same deal, hit or miss, or is it something that shouldn't be attempted?
Thanks.
