Coconuts? Slightly off topic.
I was in an upscale produce market the other day and
saw coconuts. I had a flashback to one tropical fish
book or another and remembered that the author
suggested using coconut shells for anchoring java moss
and such. Besides, it might offer my dwarf cichlids a
cool hideout. I bought two coconuts and managed to
get them open this afternoon without maming myself.
The sticker on the coconut said to use a "stout knife
or vegetable peeler" to get the meat out. I
successfully managed to bend the peeler and figured
I'd better put the knife away before I sliced off my
thumb. Now I have four meat filled coconut halves in
the kitchen sink.
I saw in the archives that a few of you have used
coconuts in aquariums. My wife's good humor is going
to fade fast. Any suggestions on how to dig the meat
out?
Thanks,
Chris
