My bettas turned their noses up at it, but my shelldweller & main tank (15g) devoured it in seconds. :thumbsup: its a winner! lol

Fish don't eat vegetables. Sheesh...

really lol? That's funny.

I've been perfecting one for a while, so do you mind helping me with the reasoning of a few ingredients?
-Dill
-Oregano
-Tarragon
-Lemon Juice
-Relish

I can (somehow) see use of all the rest of the ingredients, but these confuse me.

My Pleco loves eating cut and blanched Zuchini, cucumbers, green beans and peas. Most other fish like eating vegetables too.

lol, Fish don't eat vegetables.

Might want to try out a meaty recipe for the betta, though that's going to be a bit more tricky. Congrats on the success, those are probably some happy little buggers!

Actually.. I really don't have a reason.. but I'll try lol. I read that you can feed your fish herbs, and I didn't have that many fresh, so I just grabbed a few dried things out of the cabinet. The Lemon Juice... well... I figured I already added some OJ so why not. And the relish... hey, it's a veggie! LOL

1 packet should do the trick.
