1. What is the best way to grow red worms in water?First, red worms cannot simply be soaked in water for a long time. You should add river mud or pond mud, preferably with more sand. The water should also be natural water, not tap water, because tap water contains bleach, which will kill the red worms. It is best to change the water once a day, because the water in the natural environment is flowing water, or slightly flowing water. Second, the breeding container. It is best to use a wide-mouthed glass container for breeding, as this container has a large contact area between water and air, high dissolved oxygen, and good light. Third, the light source is very important. When breeding red worms at night, there must be sufficient light source, a small-power bulb will do. Anyway, the light source must be sufficient. When the temperature is high, the red worms will float to the surface of the water to breathe fresh air and bask in the sun. 4. Food. The food of bloodworms is similar to that of earthworms. Bran, fruit peels, sugarcane bagasse, fermented poultry manure, and even silt can be used as food for bloodworms. 5. Temperature. Never freeze red worms, as they will die if frozen. It is best to keep the temperature above 20 degrees. When the temperature is above 25 degrees, red worms can reproduce. Red worms are the larvae of chironomids and are very effective as bait. Red worms are used most in winter when the temperature is low. In winter and spring, the weather is cold and the water temperature is low, so using red worms as bait is very effective for catching crucian carp. The bloodworm itself has a strong smell and bright colors. It does not die after being put on the fish hook. Its own wriggling can attract bottom fish to eat the hook. Especially when the bait has no bite, using bloodworms may have unexpected results. 2. What is the easiest way to raise red worms?There are many ways to raise red worms. Here I share a simple and practical method of raising red worms using a flower pot. 1. Put a round sponge at the bottom of the flower pot (wet the sponge in water first), put some soil for raising earthworms on the sponge, sprinkle some water on the soil and mix well, not too much water. Spread the purchased red worms on the soil. Get a sponge about 2 cm thick that is as big as the mouth of the flower pot, soak it in water and squeeze it with both hands to make sure there is not too much water in the sponge, and cover the red worms. 2. Place the flower pot in a plastic basin and add three centimeters of water to the plastic basin. 3. Place the plastic basin in a cool and ventilated place, and avoid exposure to the sun; add some water to the plastic basin regularly to keep the water three centimeters deep. In this way, the water in the plastic basin can continuously seep into the bottom of the flower pot, then seep into the sponge at the bottom of the pot, and then seep into the nearby soil through the sponge, so that the soil is always moist, and the red worms can not only survive, but also absorb nutrients in the soil to grow. Regularly soak the sponge covering the red worms in water, squeeze out excess water, and then cover it. When it freezes in winter, place the plastic basin in a non-freezing place indoors to prevent the red worms from freezing to death, and do not cover the flower pot tightly without ventilation to suffocate the red worms. 3. What is the best method for raising red worms at home?Before breeding artificial red worms, first ensure the environmental requirements and ensure sufficient sunlight. Prepare a container, take the red worms from the fertilizer water, and then put the silt and red worms into the container together. Natural pure water can be used for breeding, and the water depth is generally maintained at about three to five centimeters. 4. Can I keep the red worms I bought in the soil of a flowerpot?Red worms cannot be raised in potting soil, because red worms are aquatic organisms, living in the mud at the bottom of the ditch. In the potting soil, the soil lacks water and is relatively dry, and lacks food nutrition, so the worms will die. Red worms are a favorite bait for anglers, and are usually raised in a bucket. You can also dig a hole in potatoes or radishes, put the red worms in the hole, seal it, and store it in the refrigerator for about a week. It is still fresh. 5. What is the easiest way to raise red worms?Step/Method 1 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 During the process of breeding red worms, the water quality 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. 6. How to raise red worms?Red worms, also known as water earthworms, are actually the larvae of chironomids. They live in river and pond sludge, but require flowing and clean water. Red worms 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. Rice bran, sawdust, banana peels, sugarcane bagasse, silt, pigeon manure, etc. are often fermented to make breeding feed. When breeding a small amount of red worms at home, the river and pond sludge can be taken back together with the worm species and placed in a clay pot or glass container. It is best to soak them with river water. If tap water is used for breeding, tap water should be placed in a large basin for 2-3 days in advance to remove bleaching powder and other substances before use. Change the water every other day. (You can also store the container in the refrigerator). When using, take as much as you need, put it on a clean, moist red cloth. In winter, it should be protected from freezing and placed in a box for heat preservation. If you spray it with wine, the shelf life can be extended, but it cannot be bred again and must not be put back into the original breeding basin. 7. Is it better to raise red worms in water or dry place?Water well. Red worms will not drown if they are raised in water, because they live in water. However, if they are raised in water inappropriately, they may drown or die from other reasons. For example, water depth is an important factor. When raising red worms, the water should not be too deep. The depth of the breeding pond should be about 20 cm, and a few centimeters is enough for domestic breeding. In addition, water quality and dissolved oxygen content are also very important, so not changing the water for a long time will also lead to the death of red worms. 8. What’s the simplest way to raise red worms?1. Pool and density: When breeding red worms artificially, the number is generally large, and breeding them on a large scale is very common. The first thing to pay attention to is the breeding pool and density. You can use a cement pool to breed red worms. The water depth can be controlled at 20-30 cm. It does not need to be too deep. Some silt can be placed at the bottom of the pool. The number of red worms should not be too large, otherwise the dissolved oxygen in the water will be insufficient, and there will be insufficient food. 2. Food: There are many kinds of food that red worms can eat. Some red worms only eat meat, while others are omnivorous and can eat both meat and vegetarian food. Even some bacteria can become their food. If you are breeding red worms artificially, you can also add some glucose to the water, which will help the red worms grow better. 3. Water temperature: When breeding red worms, you need to pay special attention to the water temperature, because the water temperature has a relatively large impact on the growth and development of red worms. Red worms are more afraid of heat, but not too afraid of cold, so the water temperature can be kept at around 10 degrees, or even more than 10 degrees. When the temperature is suitable, the growth and reproduction speed of red worms are relatively fast. 4. Water change: When breeding red worms, you must pay attention to water changes, otherwise the water quality will be poor and the dissolved oxygen content will be insufficient. The specific frequency of water changes can be determined according to the state of the water in the pool, and the water quality in the pool can be monitored in real time. 5. Light: Red worms do not like strong light, so try to keep the pool in a darker state. If there is strong light during the day, it is recommended to cover it in time. 9. How to raise red worms in water?Red water worms like to live in fertile water with slow flow. Late spring and early autumn every year is the season when red water worms reproduce in large numbers. They float on the water surface, often making the water surface brown-red. This is a great opportunity for us to collect red water worms. 2. When raising a small amount of red water worms at home, you can take the river pond sludge together with the red worms and put them in a basin or glass container. It is best to soak them with river water. If you use tap water for breeding, you should dry the tap water for 2 to 3 days in advance to remove bleach and other substances. Change the water every other day. In winter, you need to prevent freezing. Put a wet red cloth on the container to keep it moist. 10. Can red worms be raised in water?When the temperature is not high, red worms can be kept in water for a few days, but when the temperature is high in summer, they will easily die and stink. |
