well I tried pea pods, inside out, the BNs showed some interest.
I tried yellow courgette but it was not as popular as the green cougette or marrow
(good time of year at the mo cos the garden is cropping well and its all organic.)
I am trying to grow butternut squash, but they are not grrowing very well -keep forming then rotting off.

There's a strain of Taro here that is bright purple, so in turn, you get great strings of purple poo everywhere!! Takes about 3 days to go soft too so can put a larger chunk in. It sinks well so no need for rocks or forks or what have you. Similar looking to a yam or sweet potato.
I bought some of the new Nutrafin Pleco logs last week and my plecs think there totally pants, Even the guppies and assassins dont bother with them

yeah I bought some of these too and they are crap. although...the carnivore tabs go down ok with my hypans. they are like little pink sinking tablets.
you mean like green runner beans doodles? as i wanted to try these but was unsure..
Got some Nutrafin Max Spirulina Flakes the other day and I am very impressed with the results. They contain Garlic aswell so I presume thats why the fish are out and about when I drop some in

not exactly new but not very often mentioned is JBL tabis, i find them very good, plecs love them and very good quality.
I must admit I haven't tried a lot of things, but the ones I found that seemed to work quite well are:
Sweet potato
Green cucumber
Kent pumpkin
Carrot
Zuchinni
Bowen mango
But better than all the above were watermelon and paw paw. They wen't insane for both, although the watermelon clouded the water a bit so I only feed on the day before a waterchange.
Depending on what is cheap and in season, I also plan to try:
Rockmelon
Honeydew melon
Butternut pumpkin
Strawberries
Eggplant

I think in the Northern Hemisphere they are called papaya. Down here they grow on trees in your back yard, which means you get them for a good price.
