I just get some frozen peas and defrost (either in microwave or just let sit in hot water), then i squeeze the centres out and throw out the shell.

Just on the ich - i moved your other post into diagnosis/discussion and answered there smile.gif

Ohh, what kind of peas should I get? green peas? peas without salt?? please answer soon...

Yep green peas without added salt, or sugars. I use FreshLike brand.

Look at the nutrition label at the sodium content. I believe the sodium should be 0 (I would look at my label for ya but my peas are gone ohmy.gif ).

what, do I freeze the peas after I cook them do i feed it to them raw??? haha thanks guys for everything.

Actually you can use frozen peas and just thaw them well and deshell them, then cut them up and feed them then. You don't have to cook them if you thaw them well.

How would I thaw, in a microwave machine, or in a pot???

Jen has actually answered all ur questions in the first reply.

What I do is deshell the frozen peas (sounds tedious but actually the little pea just pops right out of the shell), then soak them in a small cup of tank water for about 15 minutes or so. Hungry.gif

Thanks for the advice, my fish don't know what the pea is, I put in the whole pea without the shell, but the fish don't seem to notice it and just swim past, it sinks, is it supposed to??? g025.gif
