Fruit and vegetables.

[MiacCroFiche]

So far I have learnt and discovered that my fish like cucumber and cooked peas... And other fruit or vegetables that tropical fish will eat?

I feed my three goldfish, 7 panda Coreys and 30+ Dalmatian Mollies cooked zucchinI and peas (not at the same time) but I hear that they will eat string beans too.

do we have to take the skin off after cooking the string beans?

my goldfish made strings disappear the one time that I put cooked string beans their tank but only after I stopped watching them. They acted as though they couldn’t bite it or something….like when humans Bob for apples in buckets of water.

do we have to take the skin off after cooking the string

it's a good idea to remove the skin from fruits and beans/ peas so it's easier for the fish to eat.

Can you use cabbage?

 

[Colin_T]

Cabbage has pretty tough leaves and fish don't normally touch it. You are better off with spinach, silverbeet or kale
