After reading http://www.urbanaquaria.com/2015/07/live-foods-microfex-dero-worms-culture.html and then http://www.fancyguppies.co.uk/page71.htm I've decided (read: told as such) that these and the often co-cultured Daphnia moina are the true wonder food for feeding fry and small fish. It seems like they've been around for a while yet I don't really hear of them being discussed, Nor can I find anyone selling/trading starter cultures.
Strange, I feel, but it doesn't put me off. Has any one here had experience with microfex and/or moina? Is there a reason for their continued obscurity? Maybe they just haven't percolated into the mainstream UK hobby yet, they certainly seem to be more popular in East-Asia. Personally I'm eager to get a culture going myself, then maybe I can get rid of that lingering microworm smell...
