Yummy white worms!!!

[afboundguy]

White worm cultures are finally starting to come around enough to feed the tank more often and @Biota_Marine mandarin mowed them down!

White worms are great as they stay "alive" long enough to squirm for a few hours if not a day and they're nutritious, easy to culture and don't really foul up tank like frozen or pellet food!

Is there any preference of white worms over grindals? Just curious as it’s much easier on me to culture grindals as opposed to white worms. My home is way too warm for WW to thrive.

Not sure the difference. I just did a quick Google search and pictures of grindal and white worms look like what I have!

As far as temperature control I bought a 4 bottle wine cooler for $10-$15 off of FB marketplace and keep them in there set at 55 °F year round in my basement.

Nice! My starter culture is arriving today!

Good luck!

Nice snag. The 6-bottle one I have arriving today was $80, but I was in a bit of a rush and didn't do too much shopping around.

I am a very patient FB marketplace shopper! I have scored 2 small fridges and the wine cooler for under $50 total!
