What do blow fish eat?

Blowfish, also known as puffers or balloonfish, are carnivorous and voracious predators. Their diet consists of a wide variety of marine invertebrates, including:

- Crabs

- Shrimp

- Clams

- Mussels

- Sea urchins

- Snails

- Worms

- Small fish

Some species of blowfish are also known to feed on algae, seagrasses, and other plant material. Their powerful jaws and sharp teeth enable them to crush and grind the hard shells of their prey. Blowfish have a unique feeding strategy where they first puff themselves up by swallowing water or air, which helps them scare off predators and makes it difficult for them to be swallowed whole. They then use their strong teeth to crush the shells of their prey and extract the soft tissue inside.
