food and whats the best???

[chillaxr6]

after a few months reading and looking i got a question about foods for my tank. I currently am using frozen cubes of food and whitebait ( silversides ) and nori. I wonder sometimes what is the best food to be feeding my children . . . I have some tangs, a birdnose wrasse, a pair of clowns and some chromis. I feed them one cube of marine brown and marine green and place nori on two clips for my 3 tangs. I feed my eel 2 or 3 whitebaits and then cut up a whitebait for my birdnose. A friend of mine is offering to give me some frozen bloodworms and i dont know how good they are??? Havent really taken the time to read any packages and was wondering if anyone was using bloodworms??? Currently my fish are all healthy and a bit plump but not fat . . . just nicely adjusted to life in my tank . . . all contents but my clowns have been in for about 4 months . . .

Bloodworms aren't a good idea only becuse overtime, it can effect the fish's liver and stomach. The food your feeding them is fine. I feed my fish maine cusine and they love it and brine shrimp as well.

Frozen bloodworms are fine to feed in addition to what you are already giving. Just remember to vary the fare.

I have no idea why it would affect a fish's liver or stomach. If you do a search (when it is available), for bloodworms you will find many that are feeding their fish this food.
