    Do a water change and leave the water low for several hours---even a day if you want--- so water flows out of a HOB filter like a waterfall. Then top off the tank and put in a little extra food and within a few days you will have eggs. They love that feeling that there is tons of food and fresh water. Works every time for me.

    I feed my pleco's spirulina algae wafers, fresh zucchini, fresh cucumber, fresh baby spinach leaves, fresh green beans. I don't blanch any of my foods, I just rinse them first then let them air dry, cut up if needed and then feed to the tanks. I usually buy a few cucumber and zucchini ever 2-3 weeks, I cut up one lot and feed to the tank that day and the rest I put into freezer bags and freeze ready for later that week or next. I defrost on the day when needed and just put into the tanks when at room temp. Simple. I did a video the other week showing how I prep my foods for the tanks.

      Why don't you just buy regular cut? It works fine and you get more for your money.

    • @ZYGTropicals
      @ZYGTropicals Před 3 lety

      I use a stainless steal skewer for cabobs!
      Just slide the green beans onto the skewer and tie a small string to the end. Just set the loaded skewer into the tank and leave the string hanging out of the top of the tank. When they have finished the green beans, just pull up the skewer with the string and re load it! Make sure the skewer doesn’t have a sharp point. You don’t want anything that can harm your fish.
      I prefer doing things this way because you can load a lot, or just a little bit. It’s easy to remove to add more and the plecos know exactly where the food will be so they can easily get what they need in one place. Green beans are my staple for them, but I also feed algae wafers and pellets for bottom feeders to make sure they get all the nutrients they require to stay healthy and breed readily!
