i am going to use micro worms to raise my next bach of axolotls if any one has any objections please say so
 
Microworms are a suitable food for hatchlings. However, there are a couple of potential problems to consider. One, microworms are VERY tiny - they are suitable only for the first couple of weeks. Two, they may be somewhat less nutritious than brine shrimp or daphnia. Three, if you put in too many at once, they can kill the larvae. Here is a demonstration:

I will add... don't be too frightened by that thread. Many people have used microworms successfully. Any food can kill larvae if you put in too much at once.
