    Michael, Where did you get them from? I would cut out the bloodworm and beefheart.
    Cheers,

    i got them from a guy over here,hes called the wiz,has his own forum,plecomadness.com,he says they are traceable to the import.
    they come from the eastern states.

    beefheart and BW i only feed minimal amounts,you think i shouldnt feed it at all?

    cheers

    The earthworms are great food especially for conditioning breeders. I wouldn't feed any bloodworm or beefheart at all it's just not worth the hassle but the mysis and krill are great too. They are my juves which went to Wiz via Sydney.
    Cheers,
