    cabbages should work. i used to have a sailfin pleco (those common kinds u see for sale at lfs) and it loved boiled cabbages. u could see it hanging on to the cabbage for awhile then it swims off. []

    my L128 loves cucumber, esp the centre part with the seeds. however, carrots hasn't been too well received, even boiled ones.
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    zucinni (can get at cold storage) .


    lettuce got next to no nutrients.
    it is good for human beings who want to lose some weight but not fish.

    Potatoes, boiled green peas, lettuce etc. BTW beside vege you guys can try Shrimp !, they luv it ! First you have to remove the shells, next, the poo stuffs and finally soak the " what is left of the shrimp " into warm water - this is to get rid of salt ! hmmmm yummmy ! check it out ![]

    zucchini, even my corys like it!

    lettuce have to be romaine or any dark leaf ones. blanched.

    cucumber, watch the seeds swimming with your fishes after that.[:0]

    carrots, only my L047 Mango "stuck on it".
