I decided to add some documentation of what I feed my tank for lunch everyday.
I order online from Eastern Aquatics. He has new ponds and the worms come very clean with little organic matter and almost no leeches.
They come packed with a cold pack in a foam lined box. This is a 1lb shipment.
I pour them in a plastic container and rinse them in cold water 2 or 3 times to remove any of the brown color. I am on rain water so I do not need to treat the water with any declor or charcoal.
Once clean I split the 1 lb batch into 2 containers. Add about 3/4 inch of water to cover them. Too little they will decay fast.
Too much and they will die from lack of oxygen. I add ice to chill them down. Then into the garage frig for safe keeping.
They should stay alive for about a month. I rinse them once a week or whenever I see brown forming in the water.
Any questions feel free to message me
Cheers
