This may seem a silly question, but before i purchase some pleco to clean up my Arowana tanks, i wish to know what to feed them. I have seen someone mention some kind of sinking wafers but have no idea whare to purchase, or the exact name of the product. I live in Thailand but order various items from Singapore, so i hope some member can advise on what product i require.

Welcome abroad Moonriver, firstly was taken a back when u mentioned buying some plecos to "clean up" the tank. Den kinda relieve to hear at least you r looking for food to feed them. Cheers.

PLecos ain't any cleaners at all. Hence they will not thrive on the leftovers food alone. :)

Commercially food available, i would recommend you to look for any sinking pellets you can find in your area. Over here, most of us go for Hikari Cani/Algea wafers/catfish sinking wafers/goldfish sinking wafers to Tetra monster pellets/algae wafers/tetrabits, this are some of it only, Nutrafin, Tropical, Sera do have their own line of products too. So i strongly recommend yuo to get things u can get easily in your area over choice of food.

P/S: i do comm plecos with aro, but i still feed my plecs everyday or alternatively........ :)

Cheers

I have lots of things i need to keep all my tanks running.

For salt water tanks i have 1 6ft and 1 7ft
For my Arowana tanks i have 1 4ft 1 5ft 1 7ft 1 8ft

All my pumps and canisters are Eheim, as i live in a remote part of Thailand i need to have a good supply of spare parts.

There is a company in Thailand called White Crane they appear to have in stock Hikari Tropical Algae Wafers. Will this be ok ?.

Have posted some photos of my Saltwater tanks, i am now overseas so do not have any photos of my fresh water tanks and my 3 SR Arowana.

Not sure the name of the pleco they have in Thailand, i know very little about plecos to be honest.
