Hello,

I had a question about feeding peas to my Convicts, Terrors, and Sevrums. I went out and bought some frozen peas so I could get some vegi matter into them, but upon reading the package after purchase I noticed the peas have a lot of sodium, and they used salt to preserve them.

If I feed the peas to my guys will this harm them and how ofter should I feed it to them?

Thank!

i would not feed them to your fish, the fact that they have alot of sodium, would be a large reason not to feed them to your fish. i've never really had success feeding cichlids vegatable matter, though you could still try, i have never found it to be a neccacity in there diets.
 
Why not feed them Zucinni Or a Peiace of Orange.
 
These fish all get and have been fed thawed peas every 3rd day or so a long time,

I also feed peas whipped in blender with tank water to fry.

i feed my dovii peas but there fresh peas ..
 
Hmm, I didn't think an orange would be too healthy for them.. I thought it might be too acidic. They do like zuccini though.. I was reading some books and it said that peas are taken happily. I will stick with zuccini.
 
my freinds giant gourami gets fed frozen peas they seem to love it.
i reckon to thaw the frozen pea before feedind should do.
