Can I feed my Tiger Barbs Hikari frozen bloodworms nearly everyday?

I would also supplement with Bio-Blend food.

Thanks

No... Once a day is excessive and will lead to bloat, once every 3 days to a week would be much safer.

I agree that using bloodworm as a treat (once a week max) is the best way to prevent them gorging themselves.
