[APD] RE: SAE food

["Christopher Ferrell" <ferrell_chris at hotmail_com>]

I bought a bag of frozen brocolli stems from the grocery store.  All of my 
fish love the little end pieces (barbs, rams, saes, neons, etc.)... once 
they are "topped" my SAEs continue to graze on the stem pieces for a day or 
two until they are gone.  My SAEs are about 4" long, but I have no rotalia 
for them to feast upon.

I also toss in cucumbers, spinach, lettuce (non-iceberg) and other green 
stuff I end up with from the grocery store.  I usually blanch everything w/ 
boiling water for 15-60 seconds, depending on what it is.  Lettuce and 
spinach for less time, "thicker" green stuff for longer.

I actually haven't blanched the frozen brocolli, I just toss it in straight 
from the freezer bag, and they eat that up without any issues.

Chris
