Banana and broccoli

[hollywood]

Hi I am wondering if you feed Tangs this combination and how often you feed it?

You can feed your tangs this as much as you want.I feed them this first meal in the morning then some frozen food at night

Wait a second....you bought $1000 worth of dehydrated broccoli?!!

I tried feeding some banana pieces again tonight because I wanted to see if my CBB would eat it. He ate ... well, maybe one piece. Which is more than I can say for any flake or pellet I've tried, so ... although it's pretty insignificant it's sort of momentous too. I might try again. Although he didn't eat any more pieces other than the first one, he just chased after them and then gave up when he realized it wasn't mysis.

Tang ate a couple pieces too, but not with a lot of gusto, more of a "what is this, is it good to eat?" curiousity.

Yes i had to buy 1000 dollars worth before they would send it.I have enough for 100 years though.I give alot away to friends and people i meet in the hobby.Cant take it with me.I tried really hard in Canada /even had the goverment trying to find some.Only in the USA

How do you feed it? Just toss a chunk in and let it float around?

I know I shouldn't be laughing but for some reason these posts are funny. Thanks for the late night laughs, Drew. Maybe it me invisioning this in my FO tank and what my puffers will look at me like.


I find this Banana thing very interesting though. Thanks for the post. Looking forward to hearing from others that have tried. I know in the past I have tried spinach and brocolli with little interest. Can't say I have ever tried banana though.

Glad I can entertain. I'll be here all week....

Did you you try to feed your fish raw brocolli .It is to hard for them.All my fish including my lionfish eat it .Why spinach.There is high iron in spinach.
