Default screwcumber @ ebay

Hi All,

I am new to this particular site, i recently bought a screwcumber of ebay, it is brilliant for weighing down virtually any vegatation for my bottom feeders, i used lead strips for a while but was told to stay clear, also has anyone heard of using boiled egg as a treat for plecs **** ****i use cucumber regularly and thought of giving them a change . thanx for the warm welcome rhsamg

Hi RHSAMG,
Welcome to Fish Forums Try using some zuchinni. The plecos love that as well. Boiled egg will probably foul your tank.

You can get veggies to sink on their own by blanching or lightly nuking them before feeding. Plecos also love canned green beans. Get the No Salt Added beans or else rinse really well.
