Description

Save $1,400 A Year with My Complete Aquarium-Saving Methods I teach: https://isamuyoshida.com Turn over that tub of algae wafers and read the real ingredient list. Very often the first ingredients are fish meal and wheat flour, and the algae sits far down the list. Your pleco, catfish and snails are being fed mostly filler. In this video, a koi keeper from Niigata's snow country shows you five cheap, natural foods your bottom fish were really made to eat: driftwood, dandelion leaves, green beans, sweet potato, and the hero, a single pumpkin from the harvest that can feed your grazers for weeks. You'll also learn the belly check that tells you whether your pleco is truly fed.
