My golden spot pleco just loooves his veg. So far he has demolished cucumber, carrot, lettuce and green pepper. I love watching him eat veg, and he just sucks away for hours on end!
What I want to know is, how often should I give him veg? I would give it to him every day becuase he is so fun to watch, but I want to do whatever is best for his diet. He also eats pleco pellets - how many do other people feed per day? I have been feeding him 2 a day, but the other fish like them too and will nibble away on them.

I do courgette and pleco wafers a couple of times a week and bloodworm and brine shrimp a couple of times a week including prawn

I seem to have no problems, maybe this isn;t enough?

The whole tank gets bloodworm once a week, plus I do add freze dried brine shrimp every few days.
