I've tried cukes and zuchini but never got the fish to even sniff them. They will eat the "meat" from cooked peas and love that.

I feed Kale. What an awesome vegetable. It ranks as a top-ten source for almpst any vitamin you can name, I've even seen health nuts puree it into a 'pablum' and drink it like the elixir of life!

If you feed bloodworms very often, the peas are definitely a good thing. Bloodworms are high in protein and can cause constipation issues. The peas will clear that up.

COurgette (Zucchini), cucumber, butternut squash, mango and apple (don't forget fruit !)

It all depends on what fish you have. Kepp trying different stuff and see what they like. DOn't use soft fruit though, it will spoil the water too quickly.

Whatever you do put in, make sure you remove it again after 24 hours maximum (ideally sooner).

My fish enjoy sweet potato (Cooked thoroughly) once in a while, although I don't give it to them that often because it breaks up slowly in the tank and I have to vacuum it afterward. Courgette is my bristlenoses favorite though, they love it. I haven't had much luck with carrots or cucumber.

My Pleco seems to like Brocolli

 

[fishnovice]

My mollies/platy/swords/gupies will eat anything - courgettes. cucumber, potato, carrots, broccoli. Plec has potato, courgettes and cucumber

My rainbow cichlids go crazy for cooked Brussel sprout leaves. All of my fish eat spirulina flake almost daily. It is a high protein food that even my vegetarian leaning fish enjoy immensely.

Does anyone else find that only the middle of a cucumber ring gets eaten , the seedy bit?

i have tried cucumber, potato, and carrots but none of them touch it including Trevor the BN Pleco.. But they do go wild for frozen bloodworm, are garden peas ok to feed them if the skin is removed 1st?
