Hi i have a 2ft tank with 4 guppies. I finally took my pleco back lukily they understood why, i really miss him but it's for the best. He had great character always stuck to your hands if you put them in the tank.

What vegetables can i feed my fish? I know i can probably feed them peas but how would i feed them peas as my fish don't have big mouths. Would i be able to warm up some frozen peas, de-shell them, cool them and feed them to my fish?

Thats exactly what you do to pea's
They will not just eat them though, but slowly graze on it.
Blanched lattice and a little courgette too is fine.

Thanks for the quick response so just warm them up, de-shell, cool and feed. Ok will get that done as they need feeding but they need abit of a variety as they haven't had anything but flakes or freeze dried tubifex for a while. I feel sorry for this but i haven't been able to get any live foods for them
I have also heard that they can eat sweetcorn? But is this true? just checking as i don't want any deaths.

I've never feed sweetcorn, and think the husk would far to much for a little guppy anyway.

Oky doky i won't feed sweetcorn then. The reason i haven't been able to get out is a bad thing, it ain't the best of all injuries to sustain when fish need more live food.
