Although bloodworms are eaten by sw fish, you have to remember there is no nutritional value in it to be worthwhile. A treat of bloodworms is fine, but, not as a staple.
I have never heard of using garlic on fish food myself till I joined this board.But after seeing the benefits first hand and seeing how much my fresh and saltwater fish love it.I will always use it.I am using the mix that I made on both tanks I figure if it is good for the saltwater it has to be good for the freshwater.
I have a bad tendency to over feed and that is what I am trying to avoid with the saltwater,I am getting better at it with the freshwater but I hate to think they are hungry,.
yea that can be a tuff habit to break especially when they come up to the glass like there almost begging for me.... sneaky fish. Please Sir, More fish flakes?:dance2:
try out garlic guard...its much cheaper than the kent stuff and works better IMO. i feed frozen blood worms to my fish.
morning meal: bloodworms, and sperilina brine, and red algae on clip
evening meal: angel formula, enriched brine, mysis, and green or brown algae on clip.
its all thawed and rinsed first then added to a cup of tank water to marinate in selcon, zoe marine ,or garlic and then feed to the fish.
