I mainly like quality flake food, and blood worms. I do use frozen brine also.

Thats what i've been using for 3 years i'm wondering if there is any other foods good for your fish.

platies and guppies love vegetables Just blanch them and put them in your tank and you will see them "pecking" at the cucumber/lettuce/courgette . Takes them a few days to eat it all though

william told me about brocilli, so i tryed it out , and my fish loved it,

 

[Great Lakes]

Maybe that is where I will put my serving of broccoli from now on...

2 questions:

How do you blanch food and what type of blanches veggies would clown loaches eat?

Also, would giving fish crane flies be a good idea (not for the fly of course)

 

[wetwetwet]

Blanching is a 'quick' boil and I think you can pretty much try any green vegetable - see what they like


Don't know what crane flies are but I wouldn't
