Hello,
I have a platy and some panda corydoras. I feed them pellets most of the time, sometimes a blanched pea, and some frozen bloodworms and brine shrimp. However, I know platies like to have some plant material as they are omnivores. I believe cories will eat it, but it's not really meant for them.
I tried blanched peas with garlic and my platy loved them, the other day I blanched a cucumber, and no one touched it, except for a curious cory who quickly became uninterested.
What other vegetables can I give them? I know zucchini, spinach, and lettuce (as long as it isn't romaine), peas, and cucumber... but what about other kinds, like carrots, cabbage, squash, corn, broccoli, or brocollini?
I would appreciate the help, I've been researching as much as I can but not finding much; plus, given all the misinformation that floats around on other sites, I wanted to consult a trusted source.
