I have read that some fish like veggies, cucumber and peas etc. So i was wondering if anyone could tell me if my fish would benefit from them and which fish like which veggies.

I have:
1 x Dwarf Gourami
1 x Balloon Kissing Gourami
1 x RTBS
2 x German Blue Rams
5 x Cardinal Tetras
4 x Zebra Danios and 1 Leopard Danio
2 x Serpae Tetra
1 x LDA 01 (Gold Stripe Panaque)
1 x Red Claw Crab
 
Pretty much all of them would go for peas.

Also, feed your plec anything like zuchinni, cucumber, and yams. My panaque maccus refuses the green veg but loves to suck on a sweet potato.
 
Oh, and how does your red claw crab get on with your bottom dwellers? He doesn't harass them?
 
Sebastian (my crab) doesnt bother my bottom dwellers at all. Unless its feeding time....he doesnt appreicate the other fish trying to steal his food.

My plec (aka Tigger) has his home and sebastian has his, so they tend to just stay out of each others way.
 
That's cool, I had a fiddler crab and aside from the fact that he should've been kept in brackish water, he was aggravating my RTBS so i had to get rid of him
 
I have tried veggies with my tetras and corys and they never touch them. I've tried cucumbers and zuchini but not a nibble. They will eat peas but that's it. My otos would eat veggies but if I put those in the tank, they never touched the algae.
