[UniQuaria] Hungry chinese algae eater
There are special foods made just for algae eaters that you can buy. Also, you can use the food recommendations of plecos - boiled lettuce, zucchini and other such greens weighted down with a small rock or something. The CAE like that stuff as much as the plecos do. They’ll also eat regular flaked fish foods, though I’m not sure a steady diet of that is good for them (or any fish).
