Hello everyone, i was wondering if tetras eat any sort of veggies. I have 6 red eyed and 6 penguin tetras with 2 cories in a 40 gal breeder. I feed the tetras flakes, blood worms and brine shrimp. I would like to mix in some greens in there. I've tried to do some research on this but can't find any. Anyone have any suggestions?


Thanks in advanced.
 
They'll graze on them, but won't attack them like many bottom dwellers. Blanching or freezing the veggies first will soften them up enough that the fish will show more interest.
