These can be seen from the pics below that they are CLIFF HANGERS and all I need to do is to tear them away and feed them directly after cutting into minute pieces.

I hope the findings will encourage ppl here to utilise and harness the potential of this primitive plant and incorporate it into the diet to yield better performance in their goldfishkeeping.Soon our drains and ponds will be swarmed by .....not this swarm thing but ranchu lovers scouring for the swarm thing! goldrush
