erm, does anyone know what to feed baby sundew? They are about 1cm tall now and it seems like they could eat a tiney bit of fish food, but are they strong enough at this age to handle it or will it just rot before they finesh it?
 
alot of people feed little dew seedlings very small peices of
dried blood worms.(moisten before feeding them to the dews)
oh and you can find them at petshops

and make sure the
food isn't any larger than the leaf, or it will surely rot.

My seedlings have always eaten the springtails that inhabit all my pots. Thier leaves are almost covered at times. Even if you dont have anything like that, they will photosynthesize, and feed on small organisims from the soil. They can basicaly take care of themselfs at this size.

At this size, feeding will do more harm than good. I suggest you wait until they are larger.
