Tony, banana IS a tropical fruit, afterall

Yeah but, ... I never thought of it as a reefy food. What's next? Passionfruit? Kiwi? Mango? Problem is I like that stuff too much I'm not so sure I'm willing to share too much of it...

I found out about the banana thing about a year ago. I used Brad’s fish as guinea pigs and they loved it.

So I’ve been feeding it to my fish and my customers fish ever since. I haven’t found a fish that doesn’t like it, although I’ve found that some Triggers seem to get quite bloated by it. But there doesn’t seem to be any ill affect. I also recently found out about dehydrated broccoli and it’s use for reversing lateral line and hole in the head. It also works awesome for putting on weight with skinny tangs. I tried it on an anorexic yellow tang. Within two weeks his body weight doubled. Not to mention that they go crazy over it.

(Should we start a new thread?)

Where does one find dehydrated broccoli, and is rehydration necessary before feeding

Mike, I'm also curious about the broccoli...got a source? Oh, and how come you never call anymore?

I tried feeding two tanks with banana chunks tonight. Not exactly an overwhelming response ... one of the cleaner shrimps jumped on a piece as it floated by, but didn't decide to eat any .... the banggai cardinal had a piece, but showed no interest in any more after that. Everyone else cheerfully ignored my eager attempts to please them... oh well. Maybe another day ...

You dehydrate it your self with a food dehydrator.
And yes you have to soak it for a few hours to make
It soft again.
NEVER CALL are you for real how come you never
