Food leftovers

[Bbentler]

Are there any fish or invert that will eat extra fish food? I have a dog faced puffer that likes to leave traces of freeze dried shrimp.

I would get a cleanup crew such as snails and hermit crabs. Hermits do a good job of cleaning up the leftovers.

Regards,

Pat

serpent stars. My blenny and wrasse also follow my coris wrasse around getting his leftovers.

~EDIT~ I'm not sure if serpent stars are ok with puffers.

Have a look at this thread, it lists all the cleanup crew's attributes:

Will the Puffer eat any of those snails or crabs?

I think there is a chance that it would eat any of those. Maybe the larger FO hermits and a queen conchs would have a better chance. Maybe post in the Aggressive/FO forum to find out more.
