bloodworm fish death opinion question

[brian7]

A couple weeks ago I had lost a tiger barb from I believe swim bladder (or whatever it’s called). Although everyone insisted that I may have a disease in my tank. A month later no more losses so obviously it was not a disease (unless the fish it self just had one). I believe it had died from over eating bloodworms (frozen), I only gave them once a week. I am now afraid to feed bloodworms to my tank, any opinions?

I have been feeding bloodworms to my fish for years without any problems.

You could've just had a sick fish ... not a disease outbreak ... I had a female TB die about 3 weeks ago that I've since Feb ... it started swimming weird, the next day was swimming fine and then boom ... the next morning ... dead under a decor cave. No other casualties ... no other signs of stress or illness with the other fish.
