    Wouldn't comparing to fried-dried bloodworms be a bit more of an apples to apples comparion?

    My canister of Hikari freeze-dried bloodworms shows as follows:

    Crude Protein min 65%
    Crude Fat min 5%
    Crude Fiber max 3.5%
    Moisture max 6.5%

    Al, I just received my order a little while ago. I threw 1 spinach cube in the tank and at first they all started staring at the cube for about 1 minute but, once the first 1 nibbled on it they all charged and tore the cube up! Al, thanks for breaking the order up. Later on I'm going to give them the regular FDBW's
    Thanks Again, Ramon

    Great food! All my discus love them and they are a clean food. Don't have to worry about cleaning up leftovers and they do well in the auto feeder. Planaria has all but disappeared since I started using FDBW as a staple food and the bag lasts forever. By the way, I'm also in the 30% of those who are allergic to FBW.
