One of the more intriguing inventions/products in the last two years is this pleco feeder. This tool secures some of plecos’ favorite vegetable items and clips on the side of tank for easy place observation and cleaning. I purchased one last year when the owner of this company first came out with this. But the new generation that came out has a wider back allowing you to use this in larger tanks with thick frames as well.

My personal observation: I have four places in my 92 gallon corner tank: A gold nugget, a snowflake, a leopard, and a pushynose. These four places have different personality and slightly different preference for diet. The snowflake and the bushynose are benefit from this tool the most.
I have tried several different vegetable and I have concluded that zuchini/cucumber is their absolute favorite. However, I also prefer zuchini over cucumber as it does not “dissolve” in water like cucumber does and it doesn’t club up the filter intake like cucumber does. If you have a place, and want to make these magnificent creatures happy, you should get one of these!
