come get me tang police!
I think the question comes down to whether a JD actually needs live food. I don't think they do, especially when they get more complete nutrition through a pellet.
Some fish, predator types for instance, will only go after live wiggling food. In that instance I give feeders but only out of necessity.
I don't have any issue giving my JD's feeders, but it also gives them this instant bite reaction to anything moving in the water smaller than them, so I don't keep them with any tankmates.
I give them feeders every once in a while, but it's just to cull the fish, not to help the JD out in any way.
