Hello evertone!!!!

I feed my Cories two kinds of flakes, veggie wafers, shrimp pellets, New life Spectrum Stable Wafers, and once a week I feed them bloodworms. Also sometimes I feed them brine shrimp. So my question is what fruits and veggies would be good for them that they would like??????

i feed my plecs zucchini twice a week, and the cories don't really seem to care for it. they might nibble once in a while, but mine prefer their algae wafers and shrimp pellets. their mouths aren't really made for most veggies.
 
Try a little piece and see what happens. Cories are considered carnivores and in nature eat small crustaceans, worms and insect larvae, so veggies are an occasional or incidental food item for them. But cats are also carnivores, and I have a couple that will beg for lettuce if I'm eating a salad.
 
I have 2 oto's in my 20 gallon and one of them absolutely loves blanched zuchinni. The other oto doesn't seem fond of it. The strange thing is, is that there is no more algae in my tank, but even the oto that doesn't eat the zuchinni has a hug filled out belly! Aww Oto's with full belly's put a smile on my face. When I first got the little guys, they had sunken belly's. This made my eyes leak :sad:

My cory's pick at it but aren't as enthusiastic about it as my oto's. I have to admit that I share your love for cory's. Frig, I absolutely heart the little guys. Sowwy for gettin' off topic.

Good luck!
