Personally I don't use the blender for puffer food (just for the tangs food) because it gets way too fine and small for them IMO. I prefer to feed them larger chunks that they have to bite into and that also makes much less of a mess.
This is what mine looked like:    They would get one of these bags a day...Most people under feed their puffers. If you ever get a chance to see them while diving, you will be amazed at how 'fat' they are.  Last edited by GreenSpottedPuffer; 04-13-2009 at 10:00 PM.

I tried feeding like GSP did, since he was my mentor and adviser on taking care of Griffie properly. I found that whole pieces would just get left on the sand bed and rot there if he dropped them. If the food hit the sand he would not eat it. I had chunks of seafood every where.
Whatever food my puffer blows out his gills is quickly eaten up by everybody else. They wait for him, and then come in like a school of piranha to eat it up. Whatever does not get consumed goes into my overflows into my filter socks which I change daily. I find the way I do it to be easier for me and better for the overall health of my system. My tank is very deep and I cannot get chunks of uneaten food out from under rocks. The food that is not eaten by my fish gets picked up and taken away by my power heads...

Haha it's all human grade food and still is when it leaves the blender... I have used our own stuff when I run out of Griffie's;
I think you and Sahron should come over for some seafood pasta  Quote:

My puffers preffer large chunks too so I avoid the blender. Really, unless there are filter feeders in the tank, it just creates way to much small debris that doesn't get eaten. I feed mine frozen seafood (over 10 varieties), freshwater snails, crayfish, and frozen vegies. They eat just about anything.
