Did they eat eat through that cucumber or did you poke that hole in it? and did you blanch it or something before putting it in, or is it raw?
They eat through it... usually pretty quickly. Half a day or so.
Beautiful tank and VERY clever BNPWhat else lives in the tank with them?
There are various cories, debauwi cats (Pareutropius buffei), congo tetra, rummy nose and cardinal tetra. And also a trio of german rams.
