I converted my DIY, evaporating chiller, that was already converted from a bio ball chamber to a worm bacteria grower to increase the bacteria in my worm keeper so I can keep many more blackworms. The acrylic thing at the top with the water flowing over plates is the old chiller that is not needed any more since I installed LED lights. It allows for more bacteria to grow to keep the worms fresh and also as a side benefit, cools them. I love re cycling.

This is the original home made chiller. :biggrin1:
