Blood worms and africans

[monkE]

Hey guys, I buy blood worms for my community tank and was wondering if there is any negative to feeding them to the africans i have?

the african species in question are:
Demasonis, Hongis, Peacocks and 1 Electric Blue Ahli

Thanks

Would not recommend it, as the odd treat you might be fine, but Mbuna any way are vegetarian, and will developed bloat quite quickly with bloodworms. Dem's are especially susceptible too bloat

thanks for the heads up, even in the community tank i only use the blood worms as an occasional snack, not a daily food. But I will be careful with the cichlids now that i know.
