Problem feeding my Royal pleco

[bigfishsmallpond]

try squash

My 2 LOVE zucchini, broccoli stalks, mango (especially my L200!) and cucumber. Most catfish (your syno) would have no interest in that kind of food because they like more protein. My Royals go nuts for it though. They'll even leave their 'sacred wood' during the daytime for mango lol

blanch it to make it softer and easier for it to eat

Lots of veges and wood.

A nice piece of market shrimp for the Syno. to fill him up first. My Synos. don't touch any veggies, they will eat a waffer from time to time. Like Penguin said, Synos. will go for the protein first.

Yes as was said go with the veggies and wood. Synos will have no interest it that, I don't use wafers as they are not all that good for herbivores as compared to veggies.
