Our town recently switched from weekly trash pickup to bi-weekly pickup. This has led to a bit of a problem with maggots in our trash "closet" (we live in a townhouse so we keep our trash in a small outdoor closet). This morning I went out and found maggots crawling all around the ground. Feeling ingenious, I collected a few of them and tossed them into my aquarium. My neons and rainbows immediately set to work and munched them down.
Is there anything I should worry about in doing this? It seemed like a nice, live snack for the fish. Is there anything to keep in mind when collecting live and local food for the aquarium?
