Zuchini Seeds

[Mako Man111]

I finally got my common pleco to eat the zuchini slices i've been putting in, but realize that I've forgeten to remove the small seeds it has. Is this a bad thing? Or will the pleco just pass over the seeds?

our plecs eat everything - no problems

I never de-seed, and no problems here so far, i wouldn't worry about it

Alright cause I've read that some people remove them, I wasn't sure if it was because it was bad for them or just made a mess.

How often should I feed veggies to my plec?

Sometimes I remove them but not always. I've seen them float around a few times but most of them are either eaten or taken up by my filters where they break down and/or get removed when I do filter maintanence.

I asked that myself a few weeks ago and the general consensus was roughly two to three times a week, depending on the species. Here is the link.

Yeah mine too! BN frefers the skin where as the rest love the middle, clown loaches seem to like the seeds!

Zuke seeds get messy, I feed them to my dog.

When I put the slices in, the cichlids eat the seeds and the plecos eat everything else!
