Gold Nugget Crazy For Zucchini

[sminker]

Within 5 minutes of putting it in the water he is all over it. He gets so into it that his body starts getting all twisted.

Thats really cool. He's really nice.

Be careful not to give him it too often. Plecos can become almost addicted to the stuff and refuse to eat anything else. Keep it to once or twice per week.

i swap between zucchini, cucumber, squash and mashed peas that are spread on a rock and mixed with brime shrimp and blood worms.

i wish my otos were that crazy for zucchini, but they're nocturnal.

im really surprised at him, ive only had him for three weeks but for the last 5-6 days he has really started showing himself more during the day. if he sees movement he runs and hides in his cave, but when he eats it doesnt seem to bother him much anymore. everywhere ive read, everyone seems to say that they almost never see their GN. looks like i bought a good one. he did have ICH when i first got him, but i had that gone in 7 days. no signs since then. and his coloring looks a hundred times better than when i first got him.
