Aquarium Advice Regular
1. I bought a couple of flagfish to eat my algae that's started (I just love them! So different from the typical catfish!) showing up on stuff. Their doing a good job of it. I read somewhere that giving them romane lettuce or zucceni was a good idea so I stopped & bought some lettuce tonight. Will they know to eat the lettuce & not just look for algae on it? Would feeding them lettuce cause them to try eating the rest of my plants?
2. I've noticed the flagfish sometimes come over when i'm feeding the ladies & will join for a few bites. Will a few brine shrimp & blood worms destroy their desire for algae?
3. Was trying to think of what I could give my female bettas foodwise thats stimulating (something live that they can hunt/kill.) My LPS doesn't hardly sell squat, feeder fish are about the only live fish food they sell.
This is probably pretty off the wall, but...could I toss them a cricket(store bought, not wild)? The small ones I feed my spiderlings look like they'd be perfect.
