Are tangerines okay to give to my Moors as a little treat?

(They are very similar to oranges)
Luke Anderson
Yes they are perfectly fine to use as a treat smile.gif
Mine don't like it though (they love their orange and grapefruit, and lime though) <_<

Feed the same way you feed orange biggrin.gif

I'm with Luke on this one. My fish seem too enjoy oranges and grapefruit better. Still have not tried that lime though.

What would you do with Fruit? Cut it up into tiny bite size pieces or put lumps in for them to nibble off of and then take them out later?

I want to put lumps of apple, orange and banana in but not sure the best way to do it?
Nykole
My Moors loved the tangerine and grapes I gave them. Im always up for more foods to feed my Moors biggrin.gif
lepperchan
so do all goldies like fruit? thats pritty cool, just put a slice of orange or something in and the will eat it up, when do you take it out and all? 15 20 min or what, wouldn't this rasie the ph of the water?

my fish are all idiots. They hate fruits and vegetables. cry3.gif

LOL Shiari! Hamburguesa(baby Moor) wasnt sure if the grapes were food and it took him a while to catch on(he watched the adult eat it and decided to try it). biggrin.gif

Lepperchan and shark_energy -- when I fed grapes I washed them in tap water, peeled the skin off and cut them into little pieces. For the orange just cut into sections. You can leave the peel on and they will just pick at the "meat." I cant rememeber which way it is but if you leave the peel on or off it will sink or float. I dont think it will change the pH if you have an established tank but you'll have to ask someone else for that one. As for bananas I have no idea!
