Make Cucumber Sink...

[themissingelf]

Perhaps I'm the last to work this out - if not...

If your cucumber floats, give it a hard squeeze to expel all the air - then it sinks.

So far I'm the last to know lol.

It all depends on your fish. I've heard some cories like it, others don't touch it. Same with plecos. A lot of people say thier fish like lettuce, but mine haven't touched it. That proves my point.

I'll give that a try.
I was using a piece of stainless steel (aka spoon handle).
What about courgette?

 

[Gazoo]

You my friend, are a super-genius!

Up until now, I thought the only way to make it sink was nuking or adding weight to it. I just removed the seeds, gave it a big squeeze and it sunk like a rock.

I'm going to have to try this with zucchini now. I have a fork in the bottom of my tank from a piece I had in there that they completely demolished. I'm dreading having to put my hand down in there to take it out.
