Yeah, I'd have thought that carrots would be too hard for them.  Odysseus and his faithful crew finished up their zucchini this morning and are working on Algae pellets now.

A person I bought some plecos from in the past used a small cocktail fork to sink the zukes. Just stick it in the side of the zuke slice and drop it in the tank.

Yep, and I think Aron made some neat little replashy holders that would work too..

I bought a bunch of vegetable holders a while back for cheap that have been working out great.  They suction onto the glass and cost me about a buck apiece.  Had them for quite awhile now.

I also like to take a slice of zuke, turn the slice up on edge, and run a peice of the lead wrap bunch plant anchors through the cross-section and drop it in the tank. Most of the time it keeps the slice standing up on edge and it's great for watching the plecos work at it!

I blanch them for a minute and they fall to the bottom on their own.  I don't know if that will work with carrots.
