That's what I was doing , IAL just left but then I started with the mulberry leaves but some of the bigger girls seemed to be searching for something so I fed them and as I said they were fighting over the dry food so I fed again over the next few days and now they have gone back to the mushy leaves and left the dry food. I'm just going to siphon everything out and let them finish the mush don't want another outbreak of planaria.

I don't have access to mulberry leaves! Waiting for Bunnings to stock them again. They said October.

I'm the same but BB Sent me some earlier this year and Squiggle sent a good lot a couple of months ago so have some for a while. The shrimp love them.

Are they dried?

[ineke]

BB sent his dried and in small pieces. Squiggle sent me a heap of freshly picked leaves which I put into a pillow case and left in the back window of my car over a couple of hot days. They dried beautifully without any mildew or mould

I dried mine in the oven and keep in a ziplock bag (my parents have trees, I don't trust the plants around here).

I can help you with some if you want ninja...enough to fit into a 3kg satchel! just shoot me a PM if you want some.

[Squiggle]

I feed both leaves & powders, I put an IAL &/or a mulberry leaf in the tank & still feed with Biozyme, bee speed, Amminovita-P & green powder mix. I think the leaves are for grazing between meals when they don't feel like the normal biofilm. :victorious:

Oh I forgot you were from lalaland...lol!

I have two IA leaves in each section all the tome and only remove when down to veins. The bubs constantly graze on them. I feed dry food, kale tabs or ambition, too and they still eat that!
