shadowfax Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 i finally decided to get some for my fish & they arrived today, problem is, i dont know what they are meant to look like & im thinking the ones i have just got are all dead!! are they meant to be flat & stuck to the side of the jar?? ive tried to take a photo but it wont come out well enough. to me they look like little tiny worms that are squashed like pancakes. any help would be great :oops: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quack Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 yeah you should be abile to see them on the sides. they are just small white worms, is the dirt damp? if not then you better water it. you dont want it wet but not dry if you know what i mean :-? also feed them, white breed with no crust that is wet and soggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Do they move at all? On another note are you planning to come to the meeting tomorrow I can show you my white worm cultures they're not doing very well at the moment (cuz I keep forgetting to feed them) but may give you some idea.

shadowfax Posted February 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 ryan i was meaning to let you know i'd be coming with my bf & have found someone to have the kids ( do we need to bring anything & how much is it??). the worms look flat & i was thinking they have been flattened by the dirt while the jar was rolling around on it way here.

ryanjury Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Sweet as sounds good then no costs at this stage will sort out membership and stuff if we decide theres enough people.. You could bring some bickies or something to snack on but im sure were going to have enough for everyone but dont have any idea how many people will show.

caserole Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 shadowfax it sounds like the starter culture suffocated. A month a go I had 1 of my very active cultures do just what you said. Every thing was good with this culture other then the lid was closed instead of being ajar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
