trust me. where i am they cant give it away

Around here the Farms want nearly $8 for a beefheart, the butchers $5 or less.

I cut it up, and freeze it, or process it with some other ingredients bag it and freeze it.

 

[davo]

is that mainly for your aro though or do you feed much of it to your plecs

 

[WyldFya]

I will feed it to the plecs. They the L239, L264, L200, A. Adonis, L047, L330 love it. the others will eat it, but mostly go after veggies.

How often do you offer veggies to your common pleco? I give mine healthy slices of zuchini or cucumber twice a week and let him fend for himself on algae the rest of the time. What is your feeding schedule?

Try using some mango for them ewurm. My L330 loves that. So do my L200s, and what they want they get!

Should I add some rum, and make it a cocktail? LOL

 

[davo]

lol you tried it yet? or is mango too upperclass for your plecs

 

[ewurm]

I will try it, although if I do that I am worried taht they will ask for a mini bar to be installed. LOL
