Mini white worm culture

[F15hguy]

Hi there, have access to a large white worm culture but want one at home.

would it be feasable to do one in an icecream container, or would this be too small.

only want enough to feed a couple of rams and 4 leaopard fish every so often so don't really need too much

I'd have thought an icecream container was about the standard size.

I use an ice cream container, produces more than enough to feed out to 3 different tanks once a week each.

yeah, I've always done large scale, like 6-8 poly boxes at a time

[Sophia]

if you can get 6-8 poly boxes of white worms going, please can I have a blob?

[F15hguy]

yeah ok, it seems we have a white worm shortage in NZ

I only have one atm, but I will expand and we can all have white worms!!!!

(p.s. after todays post I have officially run out!!! (unless I want to give it all away)

and to those who have them, white bread makes them breed, luncheon sausage makes the get bigger.

In your 1st post you said you had access to one, now you are saying you have one at home, is it just me or am I missing something?

apparently it is the water in tauranga

I have a big one at work (large polybox size) that consumed 2 whole slices of bread every 2 days with no left overs before I sold a few cultures. I bought an Icecream container worth home with me tonight, Missus doesn't understand why im so happy about a container of dirt and soggy bread :lol:

I usually have 2-3 boxes going but at the moment I am trying to get various cultures going again and only have an icecream container. Will move to a box when it grows a bit. The hot summers here make whiteworms tricky.
