They are efficient in capturing their own food. You can find carcass of insects in the traps from the photo. I am more worried that they overeat than nutrient deficient.

and something like a mass of spider web too growing on the media, what should i do? please advice..

The smallest I transplanted was ~1.5cm in size. They don't seem to mind at all. Growth continue immediately.
Are you sure the webs belonged to spiders? Or is it fungus? Spiders don't survive long near VFTs. Spiders are among the favourite meal on menu. Fungus usually disappear after a few days... leave the pot a bit on drier side.

thats why i write "something like a mass of spider web", i know it like funges and i always have problem with them, the seedlings that live near it experience "stun" if this is the proper word
well, so far i found out that seedlings favourite meals was the small 1-2mm insects that crawling on the sphagnum moss, thats insects corpse are usually found on the small trap that i have
