Gold nugget pleco...

[justrfb]

All,
 Is my research correct...  If I get a Gold Nugget Pleco ( L018 ) he will not eat the algae wafers I feed my other pleco?  Thank you for your time and answer.

Since I looked. I'll cheat.

These fish are grazers, but not in the sense that they eat only vegetation. They actually sift and chew at the film of organic matter on hard surfaces in search of higher protein foods. In the wild this would constitute a variety of foods from small insect larvae and crustaceans to other animals eggs and possibly even recently dead animals. With this in mind, frozen foods such as bloodworm and blackworm should be offered along with frozen prawns. Algae and plants are avoided, but cucumber and courgette appear on the accepted menu. Accepted food morsel size changes with age in all of these fish
