No clue, never had them. Maybe someone will come by soon with an answer.

Do you over feed bloodworms or to many dried foods.

Try some shelled peas.

only a small pinch of flake, once a day.

Once you have cycled your tank you need to improve the fish diet with frozen foods like daphnia and brime shrimp.
Also green veg is good.
