CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to keep red worms fresh?

1. How can the bloodworms fed to fish live longer?

Here are some common methods for preserving red worms:

1. How to store red worms with leftover tea leaves: We drink scented tea every day, and pour the leftover scented tea roots into a container and save them. Go to a fishing tackle store and buy 5 yuan worth of red worms, put them in a container for tea leaves, stir them, and store them in a cool place. When you need them, take out some of them from the container, pick out the red worms and tie them up for use, and put the rest back. Later, pour some of the tea roots you have finished drinking into it to keep the amount of leftover tea leaves. Generally, it can be stored for about 20 days to 1 month. But the temperature must be controlled between 10 degrees and 3 degrees, and the humidity must be maintained. The leftover tea leaves cannot become too dry.

2. Sandy soil storage method: Prepare a plastic basin, preferably with a lid, take 1 part of the black mud from the river, and 2 parts of the coarse sand, mix them together and put them in the plastic basin. Buy red worms for 5 yuan, put them in the middle layer of the container, and cover them with sand and mud. Keep the humidity of the mud and sand, and the temperature is also around 10 degrees (you can put it in the refrigerator, remember not the freezer) and keep it below. You can take a small amount of red worms from the sand and soil, pick them out and use them as a substitute, and restore the red worms and sand and soil when not in use. Mud and sand can store red worms for a long time, and red worms can survive in mud and sand for 1 month to 40 days. Sand and soil can also be replaced with fine wet soil containing about 30% water.

3. Storage method of using fresh orange peels to pretend to be red worms: Taking 50 grams of red worms as an example, first pour the purchased red worms into clean water to wash them, pick out the dead worms, then drain the water, find a container (not plastic), find a piece of cotton cloth to wet it with water, pour the watered red worms on the wet cotton cloth, put it in the container, use 50 grams of freshly washed orange peels, tear them into fingernail-sized pieces with clean hands, pour them into the container containing the red worms, pretend to be red worms, cover with the remaining wet cotton cloth, and put it in the refrigerator. The wet cloth and orange peels can be changed once a week, and pick out the discolored dead worms when changing. It can generally be stored for about 40 days.

2. Tips for red worms to survive for 60 days?

1. Use sand to preserve red worms.

1. Prepare a plastic basin with a lid, take one part of black mud and two parts of coarse sand, mix them evenly and put them in the plastic basin.

2. Put the red worms in a plastic basin and cover it with sand.

3. Keep the humidity of the sand and the temperature below 10 degrees.

4. Take out some of the red worms when using and cover the rest with sand.

5. This method can preserve red worms for 1 month to 40 days.

2. Use tea leaves to preserve red worms.

1. Collect the leftover tea roots at home and put them in a container.

2. Put the red worms into the container containing tea roots and seal it.

3. When needed, take out the red worms from the container and seal the rest.

4. The remaining tea roots can be put into the container. The tea roots should be kept moist and not too dry. The temperature should be controlled between -3 degrees and 10 degrees. This method can generally preserve red worms for about 20 days to 1 month.

3. Mix red worms with fresh orange peel and preserve them.

1. Wash the red worms with clean water, wrap them with wet cotton cloth and put them in a container (the container cannot be plastic).

2. Wash an equal amount of fresh orange peel and tear it into fingernail-sized pieces with your hands.

3. Put the orange peel and red worms together, seal them and put them in the refrigerator. The orange peel and wet cotton cloth can be changed once a week. This method can preserve the red worms for about 40 days.

3. How to store red worms so they can survive permanently?

1. Simple cultivation method

Red worms live in a humid environment and can survive even if they don't eat for a day or two. Therefore, as long as the temperature and environment are suitable, it is easy to preserve red worms. A simple culture method is to use wet gauze or towels to gently wrap the red worms, ensure that the living environment of the red worms is moist, and place them in a shaded and cool place. Generally speaking, this method can preserve red worms for one to two days without any problem.

2. Soil maintenance method

If you want to preserve it for a longer time, you need to improve the environment and make some improvements to the environment suitable for the red worms. For example, you can use soil to preserve the red worms. The nutrients and water in the soil can provide nutrition and a suitable environment for the fish. The soil can also insulate the fish from heat and wind, allowing the red worms to stay in a damp and dark place for a long time.

4. What is 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.

5. What should I do if the red worms are not very active?

1. Change the water frequently: To ensure the lifespan and freshness of the red worms, it is necessary to frequently clean the red worms themselves and the breeding containers; every time you change the water, you need to slowly rinse off the mucus and other impurities from the red worms, and then add the red worms to the container and place it in a cool place.

2. Isolate dead worms: When preserving red worms, if there are dead red worms or red worms with low activity, they must be removed in time; otherwise, they will secrete a strong irritating odor, which will directly lead to the death of healthy worms.

6. How to keep red worms alive permanently?

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.
