I just bought a bottle of B-Complex Syrup.

Supplemental facts:
-Vitamins B1
-Vitamins B2
-Vitamins B6
-Vitamins B12
-Niacinamide
-d-Panthenol
-Vitamin C
-Folate
-Manganese
-Zinc
-Magnesium

Also contains: citic acid, fruit flavor, sucralose (Splenda), purified water, glycerine, sorbitol solution, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate.

Daily dosage is 1 teaspoon.

Would it be safe/beneficial to soak the FDBW in this before feeding to my fish?

Ok I figured 5.99 a bottle was to good to be true when it comes to Discus

The worms are fine without vitamins. Just give the fish a supplement from a good pellet or flake. ;)

I got them on prime reef flakes but just wanted to give the ones that mostly eat worms a little extra nutrition.

The word 'syrup' is what caught my attention. :confused: Fish vitamins aren't very expensive. Now and then I add a few drops to the fdbw and let it soak in a minute.
