Corys and cucumbers

[Sea_Monster87]

Can corys eat cucumbers? I've seen plecos eating them so I wondered if corys could. I think it should be ok but I'm new with corys so I wanted to ask first because I didn't want to give them something that could make them sick.

I put cukes in my tank. I've never seen the Corys eating them, but maybe they do it when I'm not looking At any rate, it doesn't appear to hurt them.

Hi Sea_Monster87

If you're feeding cucumber to another fish and your corys eat it, don't worry about it. But, I wouldn't put it in special for them.

They do need veggies, but they can get this easily by feeding them algae wafers or spirulina disks.
