I have fed my mealworms salad and plenty of vegetables and they disappear. I did make one mistake early on and fed them iceberg and it got very moist and caked things up. I’ve learned to feed watery stuff in a separate container where they climb in to get what they want and climb out.
I need to cull some of my aquarium surface plants and I know i can make things for shrimp etc but it involves work and time I don’t really have to dedicate.
I was wondering if any mealworm and aquarium enthusiasts here might know if salvinia minima, the floating plants are safe to feed to mealworms since they absorb nitrates and ammonia. Is it safe for the reptiles that eat the mealworms in the following days. This is a one time thing for now but they do multiply frequently so I figured it could be a good way to up cycle the food and not turn it to waste.
