CATDOLL : CATDOLL: The benefits of feeding red worms (the advantages and disadvantages of feeding red worms)

1. Which is better, brine shrimp eggs or dried bloodworms?

From a safety perspective, feeding brine shrimp is better than dried bloodworms.

Brine shrimp is a seafood product and carries relatively few bacteria, and even fewer bacteria can survive in fresh water. Moreover, brine shrimp is easier to digest than dried bloodworms. When ornamental fish have a digestive burden, brine shrimp can be fed. The advantage of dried bloodworms over brine shrimp is that they are easier to preserve. If you want to keep ornamental fish well, you can feed them with plant feed and artificial feed.

2. Are bloodworms poisonous? Can fish caught with bloodworms be eaten?

Bloodworms are not poisonous. Fish caught with bloodworms are edible.

Bloodworms are high-protein aquatic food that can live completely in water and survive in a humid environment. They are a favorite food of fish in water. Most bloodworms feed on humus, algae microorganisms and a small amount of plant debris in the water body, and the food they eat happens to be the culprit of water pollution. For example, the water quality of the ornamental lake in the park without running water is green or brown because of this. Therefore, bloodworms living in water not only serve as food for fish, but also have the function of purifying water quality.

3. What are the methods and techniques for large-scale breeding of red worms?

When breeding red worms, prepare a glass container, put the selected red worms into it, and then inject clean and sterile natural water. If you want to use tap water for breeding, it is best to expose the tap water to the sun for 2-3 days to remove the chlorine in it to prevent poor growth of the red worms.

Step/Method 2

Control light source

The growth of red worms cannot be separated from light. Lack of light source will cause the red worms to have difficulty breathing and suffocate to death. When breeding, it is best to hang a 5-watt light bulb above the container to provide the red worms with sufficient light, allowing them to breathe freely and grow healthily.

Step/Method 3

Water quality control

When breeding red worms, the water should be changed once a day to keep the water clean. In the process of changing the water, the red worms and the container should be cleaned to remove the mucus to avoid the breeding of bacteria. The breeding water depth should be controlled at about 3-5 cm, and the water level should be deepened at night to keep warm.

Step/Method 4

Feeding. Red worms mainly feed on organic debris in the soil, and they particularly like sweet and acidic baits. Poultry manure, domestic sewage, etc. are all their baits. In professional farms, rice bran, sawdust, sludge, pigeon manure and other raw materials are generally fermented to make feed. If it is a family farm, yeast powder can be soaked in water and fed. Feeding is also a key point in red worm production. Feeding in small amounts and multiple times can increase production. Generally, feeding is done once every 3-4 days, and 50 to 100 kilograms of manure is fed per mu each time. It is mixed with water and sprinkled throughout the pond. When feeding, pay attention to the amount of residual bait, and do not blindly feed more, so as to avoid excessive organic matter in the water body causing fermentation to produce toxic substances, affecting production.

4. What are the benefits of eating bloodworms for arowana?

Eating bloodworms can help arowana fish start to grow, because bloodworms contain a lot of protein and fat, which is very beneficial to the start of arowana fish. However, whether arowana fish can start to grow is not only affected by feeding, but also by genes and environment. If the breeding environment is poor or arowana fish does not have the genes to start to grow, it will be difficult for breeders to make them start to grow by feeding.

5. Is red worm liquid useful?

Answer: Easy to use

Crucian carp prefers live baits such as blood worms and earthworms. Not only does the movement of red worms and earthworms have a strong stimulating effect on crucian carp, but the smell of red worms and earthworms is also an important reason for attracting crucian carp. When we fish for crucian carp, we can add some red worm liquid to the bait, which can increase the fish luring effect. It is a good choice in summer and autumn.

6. What is the purpose of feeding red worms to eels? Please be more specific and it is urgently needed?

The reason for feeding red worms is that they won't die too quickly in the water, and they have a good effect on the eels' opening. Nutritionally, they are similar. You can change it, but you need to feed them a mixture of red worms, earthworms, and fish for two days. I hope it helps.

7. Is it good for fish to eat bloodworms?

It is of course good for fish to eat bloodworms. Bloodworms are the best food source for almost all fish. Whether it is cold-water fish, tropical fish or freshwater fish, bloodworms are good bait. The nutritional value of bloodworms is very high, especially for fish. After eating, it can deepen the color of the senior and replenish enough energy. Whether it is small fish or large fish, they all use bloodworms as the basic food source.

8. Why do red worms need to be frozen?

Freezing can also kill bacteria and eliminate parasites.

Bloodworms are also called water earthworms, which are actually the larvae of chironomids. They live in the mud of rivers and ponds, but require the water to be flowing and clean. Bloodworms are the best bait for fish, containing high protein. They are also one of the popular foods on foreign tables in recent years, comparable to snails. There are specialized breeding farms. They are mostly fermented rice bran, sawdust, banana peels, sugarcane bagasse, sludge, pigeon manure, etc. to make breeding feed.

It is best to freeze bloodworms quickly, which not only kills bacteria but also allows them to be preserved longer. Just thaw them before feeding. If the bloodworms are not completely sterilized and not frozen, the fish will easily get parasites or other diseases.

By freezing the bloodworms, you can provide your fish with healthy and safe food.
