    Question Micro Worm to Discus Babies?

    As I have told at my last post I am feeding spirulina powder to my discus babies with make a mixture with Dcapsulated Brine Shrimp. Before three or four days I have kept a jar where I have made a mixture of Water and Spirulina powder, today I have seen some white colour worm walking on the wall of the jar, some of those are in Spirulina mixture, the spirulina mixture become rotton and bad smell comming.
    From google I have came to know those worms are called Micro worms, it contain 40% of protin, Here I have a quistion can I feed those worms to my discus babies who are 1inch in size?
    Is that kind of worm contain any kind of bad protojoa, pathojen or bacteria which can be harmfull to my discus babies?
    Or in this way I can able to feed Spirulina Powder to my discus babies?
    Please help me waiting for your response.: Tirtha Brata

    Try some freeze dried black worms, fry love them and they grow good on them .
