Hi,

I'm relatively new to this site but I was searching for posts regarding rubbernose plecs. I've kept BNs for a while but got my first rubbernose late last week for a fry tank I have with lots of algae. The plec seems to be quite young (small) but has done a fantastic job with the algae in the tank.

I'm now trying to check into supplemental feeding for it; my BNs like algae wafers, shrimp pellets, and fresh veggies. Hoping this fish is similar, I'm going to give broccoli a try tonight.
