chocolate zebra pleco what to feed it ???

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Plecs need a variety. Shrimp pellets is a good start. I would also feed veggies, algae wafers, sinking pellets, and meaty foods such as bloodworms.
 
Did you buy a zebra, or a chocolate zebra? They are two very different species, and require different foods.
 
Both L-270 and h. zebra bear pretty much the same dietary needs. Bloodworms are a bit exoskeletony, but large plecs should have no problem downing them. They can be a hassle to feed, however, ans thus, I prefer a home-made mix or frozen (I assume you were referring to live bloodworms).
 
no not fress bloodworms frozen. the chocolate zebra is only an 1 1/2 inches so what do you suggest i got tube worms dried and shrimp pellets also some frozen shrimp alone with frozen shrimp should taht be enough i also have algae waffers.
 
he loved the shrimp pellets so atleast i know hes eating :) which makes me feel better now on to the other foods. soon i should have pics up
 
ok so i want to put alot of plant life in my tank i have a bristlenose and a chocolate zebra also looking at putting a common albino in the tank as well.
SO
#1 first off will these three get along the bristlenosed is about 2 1/2 inches cholocat zebra is about 2 inches however the albino is about 6 to 7 inches will this be a problem.

#2 will there be any problems at dinner time with these three as far as size and agression.

#3 will the common albino and bristlenose eat my plant life i know the chocolate zebra wont eat or hardly any. but whats stopping the other two?
