Your neons eat them? I guess my neons are not vegetarian...
I usually take the seeds out - is this really necessary? What I do is that I normally blanch it, then take the seeds out. It usually sinks in the tank and I leave them there. Since I have enough bristlenose pleco adults and fries in that tank, they usually dissapear completely within few days - nothing left to take out of the tank.
Well When I added the Zucchini Little bits came off I think the neons thought it was fish flakes But they did take little bits of the Zucchini. Also I dont take the seeds out.
