hi all,ned (L081) has been busted...
found him eating my floating plants!!
he only gets feed a little every 2 days,should i feed every day?
i do a 10% water change every day so the waste etc shouldnt be a problem.

GNs by nature are grazers. They live in warm, high flow, highly aerated water and feed almost constantly, this can be seen by their digestive tracks which are fairly long. There really isn't a reason that they couldn't be fed everyday with veggies. Why is he fed only every couple of days?
