CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Do red worms need oxygen? Why? (Do red worms need oxygen? Why do they die?)

1. Do red worms need ventilation?

Required

In order to allow the red worms to breathe freely during their growth, the quality of the air must be guaranteed. Natural air flow should be allowed in the breeding area. More contact with the air can effectively increase the oxygen content. When the temperature is too high, some artificial methods can be used to increase the oxygen content in the breeding area. When the temperature is below zero, freezing will occur. At this time, they can easily be frozen to death. Other warming measures can be used to reduce the freezing of the water surface, which can effectively allow them to grow.

2. Why do mountain red worms generally grow in warm shallow waters?

Because corals and algae live together, and algae need light for photosynthesis. The warm shallow waters in the ocean, so coral polyps are suitable for living in shallow waters with plenty of sunshine and warmth. Shallow waters can get more sunlight and have a suitable temperature, which is conducive to the growth of algae, thereby providing more oxygen for coral polyps.

Therefore, coral polyps generally grow in warm shallow waters.

3. How to breed red worm feed?

1. In the process of artificial breeding, the water depth is generally maintained at about 3-5 cm, especially in spring, the water level can be lowered a little to help keep warm. Their food can be mixed and fermented with silt, pigeon feces, and rice bran before feeding. For some smaller farms, they can also be fed with yeast powder soaked in warm water.

2. If you want the red worms to breathe freely during their growth, you must ensure the air quality. The breeding site must have air circulation and more contact with the air to effectively increase the oxygen content. When the temperature is too high, you can use some artificial methods to increase the oxygen content in the breeding site.

3. Red worms like sunlight, especially in breeding sites. They are not very demanding on light. They can survive well with only weak light. Some algae can be placed in the place where red worms breed to avoid water pollution. Usually, the feeding amount must be strictly controlled.

4. How to cultivate red worms in seawater?

1. Water level requirements

In the process of artificial breeding, the water depth is generally maintained at about three to five centimeters. Especially in spring, when artificial breeding is carried out, the water level can be slightly lowered. This method can effectively increase the water temperature. Deepening the water level at night can effectively keep warm.

2. Flow rate requirements

Marine red worms do not like the water to flow too fast, otherwise it is easy to wash away some nutrients in the soil and their eggs. However, we should also pay attention to the speed of the water flow, which should not be too small, otherwise it will be detrimental to their excrement discharge and cause serious pollution to the water quality.

3. Environmental requirements

Fertile water with steady flow can allow marine red worms to reproduce in large numbers. At this time, the silt and red worms can be salvaged together, placed in a clean glass container, and some natural pure water can be used for breeding. If tap water is used for breeding, they must be placed under sunlight for two or three days before they can be used as reasonable breeding water. The water must be changed in time every day, and some very good warming measures must be taken.

4. Feeding requirements

Marine bloodworms mainly eat organic fertilizers and like some sour and sweet feeds. Generally, they need to be fed once every three days. One mu of land should be fertilized with more than 50 kg of fertilizer each time, and a certain amount of water should be added, and then sprinkled after sufficient stirring.

For artificially cultivated marine bloodworms, it is important to add food to them in time to prevent them from starving to death or developing other physical diseases during the growth process. Since they like to eat sweet or acidic foods, you can add some fresh animal blood to some rice powder, stir it thoroughly, and feed it to them after fermentation. Sometimes when the weather becomes hot, the amount of food they eat will decrease. Choose to feed them in the morning every day and change the water according to the daily temperature.

5. Feeding and management

In the breeding area, there should be natural air flow and more contact with the air, which can effectively increase the oxygen content. When the temperature is too high, some artificial methods can be used to increase the oxygen content in the breeding area. When the temperature is below zero, ice will appear. At this time, they will easily freeze to death. Other warming measures can be used to reduce the ice on the water surface, which can effectively allow them to grow.

5. How long can red worms live?

1-2 weeks.

Red worms can survive in water for 1-2 weeks because they live in water. As long as they are bred using the correct method, they can survive for a longer period of time.

If breeders want to breed red worms for a long time, they must prepare a comfortable living environment for them. The breeding density should not be too high, and the water quality should not be too poor. They also have a relatively high demand for oxygen, and they need to be oxygenated regularly to ensure their survival.

6. Why is it not recommended to use red worms for night fishing?

Polluted water

There are a lot of red worms in natural waters. They live at the bottom of the pond and in the mud. They reproduce very quickly. There are many small fish and shrimps in natural waters, and these small fish and shrimps feed on red worms. It is difficult for red worms to grow in large numbers in natural waters and reach an explosive number. Small fish prey on red worms, which can help them reach a balanced state.

It is easier for bloodworms to reproduce in large numbers in black pit waters because there is too little space. The fish in black pits are relatively large, and it is difficult for large fish to eat bloodworms. Bloodworms can grow in large numbers without natural enemies, thus polluting the water quality and competing with fish for oxygen in the water, causing a decrease in oxygen in the water, thus threatening the growth environment of fish. This is one of the reasons why bloodworms are not allowed in black pits.

7. How long can red worms survive in water?

Red worms can survive in water for 1-2 weeks because they live in water. As long as they are bred using the correct method, they can survive for a longer period of time.

If breeders want to breed red worms for a long time, they must prepare a comfortable living environment for them. The breeding density should not be too high, and the water quality should not be too poor. They also have a relatively high demand for oxygen, and they need to be oxygenated regularly to ensure their survival.

8. How to send red worms?

1. Cultivation method: Wrap the red worms with a wet towel or gauze and store them in a damp and cool place. They can generally be preserved for 1-2 days.

2. Soil preservation method: Take moist soil, add a small amount of nutrients and water, put the red worms into the soil, and store them semi-sealed in a damp and dark place. The red worms can be preserved for a longer time.

3. Low temperature preservation method: Use a glass or ceramic container to hold the red worms, sprinkle a little water on the surface, put it in the refrigerator, and replace the water every 1-2 days.

9. What should I do if there are red worms in the grass tank?

For the treatment of red worms, we can generally use ivermectin to kill insects. We only need to dilute ivermectin and spray it around the pond or where there are a lot of red worms, so that the purpose of killing insects can be achieved.

Because bloodworms also need to breathe. They need to absorb oxygen in the water, which can easily cause hypoxia in the water. In addition, bloodworms will eat a large amount of phytoplankton, causing a sharp decrease in the number of phytoplankton, which can also easily cause the water to become thin. Therefore, a large number of bloodworms still need to be dealt with.
