when i was in the store today, i saw reptotreat brand bloodworms, which are packaged in a "nurtient-rich" gel. i was wondering what you guys think of feeding this to eastern newts. my eastern is fed mainly on live blackworms (that are always on the tank floor), frozen beef heart, frozen bloodworms, freeze dried bloodworms that i rehydrate prior to feeding, and the occasional chooped earthworm or waxworm. i'm always looking for new foods, and these packets are pretty convenient, but i'm not so sure they would be as healthy as the foods he's already getting. according to the package, they also sell daphnia, gammarus and superba in gel, but i've never used any of these foods live before and havent seen the packages in stores, so i most likely wont be trying those.
the ingredients are:
bloodworms, soy protein isolate, xanthan gum, fish meal, wheat gluten, wheat starch, fish oil, guar gum, vitamins a, c, e, calcium, niacin, zinc sulfate, ferrous sulfate, cobalt nitrate, inositol, pyridoxine hydrochloride, thiamin mononitrate, cyanocobalamin, cholecalciferol, managese sulfate, red#3.
also, any suggestions for easy to feed, easy to find food that i dont have to chop myself is always welcome
thanks
