Just wondering if it's possible to have a live black worm culture?
I want to condition some fish with live food, and any advice or experience is appreciated

Thanks

I chuck a few live ones in an outdoor large tub filled with potting soil to about 8cm to the top and add water. Once a week, some old veges gets thrown in to feed em.

as fuggers said, I do the exact same, 1 cube of freeze fried black worms has the same amount of protein as 3-4 cubes of frozen blood worms. amazing stuff, I only ever get the smallest amount, think its 30 dollars, lasts me 2 months

$2 bucks a serve at Veba's.

emm...its 3 bucks now.

 

I havent had luck with freeze dried blackworms with my discus. They much preferred live ones.

$3 that's a bargain. I'll have a look at the YouTube videos and see if I can get them cranking
