	Having a pear of a time
keithgh Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 6371 Kudos: 6918 Votes: 1542 Registered: 26-Apr-2003	Photo No1 The pear is suspended by very strong fishing line. The spots are from the air bubbles at the back of the tank. It will stay in the tank for about one to two hours. As they nibble on it small pieces fall to the bottom feeders lurking around. Also notice several RT sharks feeding together never a problem.

Since you posted pear pics some time ago I've been meaning to try it with my fish. The first time I'd heard of giving fish tomatoes was after seeing some of those pictures of yours, and my fish appreciate that very much ~~~~~~~~~~~~ There is water at the bottom of the ocean

The softer the better. I have seen them strip a core down to just fibres in about two hrs. Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

sly Big Fish Posts: 377 Kudos: 251 Votes: 0 Registered: 22-Jun-2004	I can't get any of my fishes to eat fruits or vegetables. I've tried lettuce, zucchini, and cucumber. Any advice to get those rascals to eat them? [span class="edited"][Edited by sly 2004-09-03 22:50][/span]

keithgh Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 6371 Kudos: 6918 Votes: 1542 Registered: 26-Apr-2003	This may sound drastic but is it possible you are over feeding them? Let them go without food for a few days and then give them about 1/4 of what they normaly have plus a extra food. As you can see most of mine go for it. Keep this up for a few weeks and see what happens. The Opalines went crazy the first time they saw the pear.

keithgh Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 6371 Kudos: 6918 Votes: 1542 Registered: 26-Apr-2003	LittleMousling Are you refering to my Redtail Sharks. Yes three and all doing well and eat together as you can see, never a problem. The large one often gets a bit chasey after feeding time and its with the large Silver Sharks.
