Reminds me of our late departed feline Snickers who would eat anything in the plant family (including the dried tops of garlic buds). All our our plastic plants have her teeth marks in them. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steev Ward<mailto:steevward@yahoo.com> To: Greater Seattle Aquarium Society member chat<mailto:gsas-member@thekrib.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 04, 2009 7:31 PM Subject: Re: [GSAS-Member] Anyone have or know where to get Crinum thaianum(onion plant) I've seen Silver Dollars eat plastic plants, but maybe that's uncommon. They don't actually swallow the pieces - just spit them out and let them float around the tank. I would think that they would eat Crinums. (I've had Festivum cichlids eat Anubias, which surprised me.)

I read a forum post from another keeper that said in his experience they won't eat crinums though. I'd like to find some. I hear anubias are safe too but anubias has always grown so slowly for me that it may as well be made of plastic. So far they seem to be leaving a sword alone, but we'll see what happens when the other snacks are gone.
