![]() PVC works well.Īnyway, for more information,if you'd like to keep just the worms alone for now (or some of them anyway)ġ. I am too interested in your experiment with tubifex worms, but I'm not willing to try it for myself.Ĭlick to expand.especially if they start to die off, they can be kind of fragile IME.Īnother thing to pay attention is that from some suppliers, there can be leeches in with the worms, and obviously this isn't ideal, it's possible to remove leeches at normal temperature by giving them something to climb that the worms are unable to. I ended up scrubbing down the tank and the substrate, and feeding FROZEN blood worms, which he ate just fine. The tank instantly smelled like the jar I was keeping the live blood worms in. ![]() There was a slime that hovered the entire area. The blood worms had colonized all of the area under the under-gravel screens. When I pulled up the mesh, i was in shock. Finally I had enough of this, and figured that the under-gravel filter had to go. I was doing water changes on the tank more and more frequently. Now this was back in the day when under-gravel was the thing to do. Then I noticed my water was getting nasty more and more quickly. ![]() So I ended up having to change the blood worm water every day just to keep the stench down. The very next day when i went to check on my new addition, there was a horrid smell coming from the jar of blood worms. I kept them in an open jar next to the tank. So they sold me a bag of them along with the fish. I used to keep a sturgeon that the LFS told me needed live blood worms. I am not sure about tubifex worms, But I used to keep live blood worms.
