Getting Vegetables to sink???

[Ianab]

I have some big stainless steel wood screws that I ground off the sharp point. They work fine for bite size pieces.

But I did have 8, now I have 4, I think the fish have burried the others in the gravel. Guess I will find them again some day.

For bigger pieces, use a stainless table fork.

A rock and rubber band along with a fishing line works very well for me. Without a way to get the rock back up easily, you will have to net that rock and rubber band up later. Yam is a favorite for my plecos and it will sink by itself without weights. Also it does not cloud the water.
