Here's an unfortunate result of feeding bananas. I was feeding algae as well (from my turf scrubber) to recycle nutrients in the tank. Now the fish aren't eating the algae!!!

I placed bananas and algae together and the banana disappeared, but the algae is being eaten very slowly...

Maybe bananas are more filling so after eating them, they're not as hungry? I don't know if they taste the difference?

Anyway, I'm off bananas until they eat all their algae. No desert until they finish their veggies.
