Care and Feeding of Pet Slugs

If you find a fish tank larger than 10 gallons with a fitting screen top, place about an inch of rocks in the bottom to build up moisture and put in 2 to 3 inches of dirt, and put in some moss, a 3 inch slab of tree bark and a tree branch to fit diagonally standing up wide enough for the slug to climb on. They like to eat sliced tomato, peeled banana, lettuce, and strawberries. You can try out different fruits and veggies. When you close the tank don't forget to put a piece of cardboard that covers half of the top of the tank.
