I have been getting my German Blue Rams to eat bloodworms out of my hand. I will hold a bloodworm under the water between my two fingers and they will come right up and take them.

What I am wondering is how many bloodworms I should be giving each one so that I know I am not overfeeding them. I started them off with two each but it seems like they will just keep going if I let them. Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Many ram keepers only feed the bloodworms 2 times or so a week. Mine will snarf as many as I feed them so I limit them to 3-4 worms per time.

P.S. You think they snarf bloodworms, well I fed live blackworms to mine the other day. Man did they go for them! They are sooo disapointed now when instead of a wiggling worm, a cichlid pellets drops by...
