FruitFly larvae as food?

[reef]

A new source of protein? I find it's very easy to cultivate this worms. Just place a small piece of fruit in a bottle or jar, within a week , those white worms will appear. Even tried moist tetrabits and it works. But a word of caution, do not sniff the bottle - it smells terrible. Any complication feeding these worms to my fish. Anyone tried b4? Thanks.

actualy 3-4 years ago i wrote a grant request asking for funds to feed fish larvae at day 16 when th eechdosone (growth hormone) levels peak and maybe we can detect cross talk between the fish and the fly.

in english- they grow better on larvae.

to bad they turned me down for some junk on human stem cells :P

i mean - saving human beings vs. growing fish? (LOL- i am joking here no harm to humaniodes intennded)
