peet Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 A friend gave me a box white worms which my discus loved... but the bread kept going mouldey and suddenly all the worms up't and died. Does anyone know where I can get a new batch and how to look after them? What other live foods are people growing (other than brine shrimp).

antwan Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 I grow blackworms and whiteworms. I keep the whiteworms in a large poly box filled with moist soil. I feed them on the cheap luncheon meat from the supermarket. When it goes mouldy or it all gets eaten I replace/add a new piece. With the blackworms I just keep them in an unheated tank with a thin layer of gravel and feed them kitten biscuits. Works a treat. You can keep them in heated water too, I guess that would speed them up and get a larger population faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
