- Live short neck clams (either clam on half shell or crack it open a bit to help them out; left over clams can be frozen for later use)
- Krill
- Marine Cuisine
- Mysis shrimp
- Nori (to give puffer something to pick at in place of your live rock)
- Raw mussels / frozen mussel cubes (crack mussels first?)
- SF Bay Emerald Entree
- Shrimp (can get raw, frozen shrimp and break off tail section to offer to puffer; rest of shrimp can be reserved for more standard cuisine uses)
- Squid
In general, brine shrimp and bloodworms don't offer the needed nutritional value; treat them as snacks or rare treats instead of meals.
