Taking a risk to feed live tw? How to wash them properly?

Used to wash them in small dose of yellow powder solution. Not advisable as the TW dies easily after soaking. Also, not advisable to wash them in running water unless ur running water is free from chlorine. Just manually wash them with clean AGED water several times before feeding shall do.

Deworming is the term commonly used, to be exact it is deflagellate where we basically reduce the amount of harmful bacterial in a fish stomach to trigger it to eat again.

Most of the time we use a single or a range of antibiotics.

If I've been feeding fries with beef heart since 3 weeks old, when will they require deworming? Don't want to start too early as I'm not sure if it's necessary or their digestive system can take it.
