I have an angelfish that appears pregnate but I'm not sure I was kind curious if she is pregnate and I give her some pea will it hurt her? The other dumb question will it hurt the other fish? I can't see where it would hurt them.
 
Peas act as a natural laxative for fish and are good to give them every once in a while. They will not hurt them. Make sure they are de-shelled and boiled to make them softer and easier to eat.

As Viper said peas clean them out and shelled peas are a must. I give mine a 1/2 dozen or so each week. I think they know when it's time because they get extra worked up on pea day lol.

LOL Thank you, I wasn't to sure, I'd actually never heard of giving them a pea until I got on here I do have a structure at a 30* angle just in case she is pregnate
