Feeding Worms To Fish

Recommended Posts

I got a pot of worms, supposedly non-tigerworms, but they were about 1/2 tiger worms which rapidly took over the culture and my fish objected.

I also can not start a compost heap due to living in an apartment with shared grounds.

I have a 20lt bucket under one of my fishtank tables. It is filled with leaf litter and has a whole lot of holes drilled in the bottom to let excess moisture drain into the kitty litter tray underneath it.

THe worms are all hand picked, but I tell you it is really easy! Go out at night after it has rained and there will be huge worms all over the concrete. These are 'nightcrawlers' and they eat leaves. They are much slower to breed than the tiger worms, but much more tasty.

If the worms are too big for your fish, take a container, lay a few worms stretched out in in and pop it in the freezer for 10 mins. You then have a lot of worm-sticks that chop up really easily.
