I'm so proud of my little brats, they finally started to eat veggies! I know it's strange because they're less than a year old! But I began putting lettuce in their pellets, shaking to container, and then giving them the lettuce (it smells like their pellets) and they loved it! Now they eat it willingly :) I'm so excited lol. Unfortunatly my rescue, a 7 in yellow belly (unsure of age), will not touch anything but pellets.. The lady at the sketchy pet store told me she only fed her goldfish. Her shell is pyramiding and she's very unhealthy :( poor thing

Glad to hear it! Is that rescue in her own tank? If so and she has a healthy appetite, you can try a tough love approach.
