Zuchini is more universally used than cucumber for this. But whatever.
anyway, I slice it down the middle and scoop out the heart with the pulp and
seeds. If you leave those in it creates more of a mess in the tank. I then
stick the lead plant weights through it like you to hold it down. I
wouldn't recommend leaving it in much more than 24 hours. You don't want it
falling apart too much an getting into the substrate or filter. And feed it
as often as you like. I usually do it twice a week. One half once, and
then the other half a couple of days later.
and with clowns, I would start feeding frozen brine shrimp and bloodworms if
they are still fairly small. Frozen beefheart if they are starting to get
larger. Thawed out in a cup of tank water first though. I don't much like
flake except for very small tanks with very small fish like guppies and
tetras. Even those fish prefer brine shrimp and bloodworms if they can get
it ;o)
