Are there any plants that will stand up to not being eaten by Silver Dollars? I have a 55g with 5 large Silver Dollars, they are large, about the size of your palm. They have munched anything I put in with them that is green and growing.

java ferns, anubias, banana plants, mosses and vals (taste bad to them) Basically anything with thick leaves. You can expect them to have a bite of each plant just to see if it taste good but after that they should leave these alone..
Keep rotalas, ludwigias away from them, or else they will leave you just twigs lol

i found them to eat every plant i had including anubias and java ferns. the only plants i could keep mine with were java moss and onion plants. onion plants taste very bad and are thick leaved.

Maybe not ALL plants. Years ago I had swords, anubius, Java fern and moss, Hygro, crpyts, ect. in my 100gal. A real under-water jungle. LOT of plants.
Bought 8 very small SD (about 1 inch), not long later I had a desert. :angryfire:
