I put cucumber in my tank and it looked like it didn't even get touched and i was watching my fish nibble at it. Should i boil it?
Someone said to boil it. Then test it with your finger nail. It should be able to go into it easily but not be like mush. You boil til it starts to change color. Which can be quick
Yes I actually just blanch it in a coffee cup in the microwave for a couple minutes. If the coffee cup has ever been washed with soap make sure you rinse it out really well first. It's done when it's bright green and can be peirced easily but still holds it's shape and it's firm enough to be held by a veggie clip.
And, Somethingclever, your sig made me acutally lol. I haz an animal problem as well
Feeding a reasonable amount daily is fine though. I always kind of feel like it's the least I can do for them.its generally not necessary to feed your fish every day. Over feeding can lead to quite a few problems in a tank. I don't feed my BN, as he get gets enough from algae and left over food particles from my other fish.
