Sushi seaweed

Post by kwksand »

I noticed some dried sushi seaweed at the market this evening, and thought I would give it a ty. To my nose, the stuff smells rank after immersing in water, but some of the fish seem to like it. They took some time to get used to the new smell, and the only ones that haven't touched it are the gastromyzon. Curious if anyone else uses this regularly.

I have used it, but not regularly. Fish are not much interested in it.
38 tanks, 2 ponds over 4000 liters of water to keep clean and fresh.

Happy fish keeping!

I used to. The otos really liked it, and it was a great way to keep them fattened up in a tank with very little algae and otos that wouldn't take wafers. I've never had anything else eat it.

I feed my fish brown seaweed from time to time, they all nibble at it.

Thanks. So far the Sewellia and pseudogastromyzon have really taken to it. Beaufortia gets excited, but doesn't eat. Gastromyzon won't touch it.
