Can you feed Melon to plecs?

Anyone ever fed Melon skin to plecs?

I know people have fed melon skins before

I will throw the skin off a slice in tonight.. I wont put the insides in tho i can imagine the water would look terrible. Ill let you know how it goes.

Whenever I have a melon I always save the skin and a little flesh for the fish. I think the skin is a good food because it doesn't breakdown and what is left can easily be removed. Mine prefer cantaloupe to gala melons.

Well i put it in... tried it with Wild ancistrus thinking if anything was going to demolish it they would.. Never touched it.. also tried it with L147, again no luck.

Hi all,

Mine prefer cantaloupe to gala melons

same as Matt definitely "Cantaloupe" for choice, the shrimps and Otocinclus really like it and even the Apistogrammas have a peck at it.
