I know dwarf puffers will eat pond snails, and it is recomended to do so for their beaks to be trimmed. I was wondering if feeding an abundance of snails can cause beak damamge? Also, I have read that MTS will chip puffer beaks. Is this true?

Just stay away from mts's if you have dwarfs. I am not sure if an abundance of snails can break a dwarf puffers beak. If your worried about it then just don't feed them that much, they like other foods too (brine shrimp and bloodworms). Feed them a variety of things.
