Hi,
My axies have bred again and I would like to try a few food sources this time, last time I feed them solely BBS to begin with and found it extremely time consuming.

Does anyone living in Queensland or Northern NSW know where I can get some Daphnia?

Also, can I feed them infusoria? because I know I can get some through Pieces, or are they too small?

Thanks,
Belinda

infusoria doesn't isnt big enough to make notable movements, this is a food for very little fry, axie's aren't that small.....you "could" give it a try tho...

Can you get blackworms? Larvae can be weaned to chopped blackworms at a couple of weeks old. Until then, you may just have to stick with the BBS.
