White worms, black worms

[Paul B]

I have been feeding blackworms to fish for about fifty years and still do, but now I also raise white worms because I wanted something that I could "fill" with fish oil before I fed them to the fish. Here are some white worms. I put that piece of Matzo in there about 2 hours ago. in a couple of more hours it will be gone and it was covered in fish oil. I just take a knife and lift out a blob of worms from the top and no dirt comes along with it.
I also feed them Cheerios with fish oil.
All my paired fish are spawning and there has not been a disease in about 35 years. Must be something to it. :scratchch

How do you raise worms? And why do you want to fill them with fish oil? Your fish must love the live food...

The worms raise themselves, I just give them a place to live and feed them.
As for fish oil, to me that is the secret to this hobby, well one of the secrets.
I have written much about that but I feel it is the reason that all of my paired fish are spawning, some are 19 years old and I don't have to quarantine. But that is for another thread.
