redmare Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 My house has a ton of boxelder bugs in it (southern Ontario). Not as bad as some places I've seen, but enough to be annoying. I've found them floating in my tanks with more gaps in the lids a few times. I was wondering if a- they were harmful to fish or tanks, and b- would my oscar like to eat them?

Brandy Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 reportedly they are not poisionous, but they are bad tasting, and fish likely will not want to eat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redmare Posted March 22, 2021 Author Share Posted March 22, 2021 update- she LOVES them! I put one in and wow.. she's a great eater and I've still never seen anything get gobbled so fast! I found a second to see if it was a fluke and she ate it even more enthusiastically. Sounds like a win-win to me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
