Hmmm... I been feeding Bloodworms every day to my freshwater tanks since I started in 2010. I have a freshwater Red-eye Puffer for over five years who's diet is maybe 95% Bloodworm. Most of my other freshwater fish eat about 50/50 flakes and Bloodworm. I have some Dwarf Chain Loaches going over seven years now.
I'm comfortable feeding Bloodworms to freshwater fish every day. Just curious if anybody has experience (other than conjecture) whether or not the same practice is safe for reef fish.
