I know cactus pads are good for ornates. How about prickly pairs? Also I am having some trouble finding cactus pads?
Thank you

Hi,
I have given mine both prickly pear and cactus pads. They seemed to like the cactus pads better. I found the prickly pear at stop and shop ($0.99) and the despined cactus pad at Big Y (~$1.20). Hope this helps!

I've also heard you might find cactus pads in health food stores.

Also found this, but it's only nearly spineless:
