Pleco food
What do you feed your plecos? I feed mine algae wafers, cucmbers, zucchini, and squash. I'm posting this to see if there's other foods that I could be feeding them. I wanted to possible find a way to maximize my money for pleco food. Such as buy in bulk. I wanted to know what pleco breeders do for food.
Thanks for any help is appreciated.

Re: Pleco food
I have 40 or so bristle/bushynose/ancistrus plecos. I'm just debating if I need 6 lbs of wafers or not.

Re: Pleco food
U can supplement a lot of the food with veggies and fruits. Ancistrus love it.
