hello all just got a snowball plec is it ok to give it veg / meat ? what do you feed urs

well the snowballs are carnivorous, so i assume meaty foods are best, i like shrimp pellets, lots of people hate them, they are messy, bloodworms is a fav of most fish, u could try frozen mysis or brine shrimp to, a bit of vegetable in its diet is good (for anything for that matter) but again, keep in mind this pleco is carnivorous, so meaty food is needed

ps, i do not own one, but have researched because i was thinking about buying one, now i cant decide between a panaque maccus, L028, L052, L128, or L205, but enough about that lol

i cant believe no one replyd to your thread, odd.

Hello.

I disagree with this i'm afraid. are not carnivores. While the odd algae wafer and bloodworm is good for them, they should also be fed vegetables every day.

The tooth arrangement of (LDA033) clearly points to an algae grazer like an , rather than a carnivore like .

Sweet potato, fava beans and zucchini are good foods to try.

Generally the more specific the title, the more likely you are to get a result. Something like "What do I feed my snowball pleco (Baryancistrus L142)" would have got a faster response.

They seem to like potatoes...don't ask me why. They all should be feed algae wafers, zucchini, and will also eat algae.

Good Luck,
