It's hard to judge when fish are actually hungry or not. Once they get used to you and start to correlate you with the food you will always get the same response!! You might actually not be seeing them in the water but they would be salivating  Kidding!! Fish in the wild are in a almost constant search for food. So, try to observe growth, activity and colours of your fish. I would try to get my puffer to accept dry food as soon as possible..that's because of the vitamins and high protein content. More than that it is surely disease free.. Feed daily, alternate that with frozen foods and even add that occasioal feeder fish treat once in a while.  gabs

A good diet consists of hard shelled meaty foods - clams, crabs, scallops, oysters, snails, small crayfish.Some hobbyists state that Hairy puffer do not require there teeth to be trimmed. Other state that every puffer needs hard-shelled foods to eat or their teeth will need trimming. I think that some occasional ramshorn, pond or apple snails would be beneficial. This looks like a good article - http://www.greenspottedpuffer.net/feeding.htm

You can buy reasonably siezed frozen shrimp from lfs.You can feed the occasional marine crab, i would freeze them before though to kill any parasites. King
