This is why it's best not to buy a critter to do a particular job and once the food source is gone they will perish because they only eat one particular food, which at times can be very hard to find. FYI Fire worms are not that common in the hobby.

Another example of this is Harlequin shrimp. People buy them to eat the hundreds of Asterina starfish in their tanks but are unwilling to buy chocolate chip stars to feed them.
