Fish Food

I'm going to buy some freeze-dried bloodworms today.
I was just wondering, how often should I feed these to my fish?
And, how much should I feed them?

Thanks

Re: Fish Food

I would only feed the once or twice a week. Depending on the size of the fish how much to feed them. their stomach is about the size of one eye.
blood worms and that type of food is mostly protein and can cause constipation if fed too often.

Re: Fish Food

Ok. If I feed the freeze-dried bloodworms to the fish twice a week, this should be OK then?

Re: Fish Food

yes, and remember only 1 or 2 worms per fish, as too many, and/or too often, will constipate them.
