CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How much water and fish feed do you need to raise red worms? (How much water and fish feed do you need to raise red worms?)

1. How to breed 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

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.

2. 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.

3. How long can fish survive if fed with red worms?

Answer: About 1 to 2 weeks.

Bloodworms can live for one to two weeks when soaked in water. This worm is the larvae of the Chironomid family. It is worm-shaped and dark red in color. It is widely distributed and is a natural bait for fish. It has high nutritional value, especially for tropical fish.

It originally lived in sewage. If you want to keep it in clean water, you need to control the water level, not to exceed 1 cm, and change the water every two days.

4. How to raise red worms?

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.

Fertile water with a steady flow can allow red worms to reproduce in large numbers. At this time, you can place the silt and red worms together in a clean glass container and use some natural pure water for breeding. If you want to use tap water for breeding, you must place them under sunlight for two or three days before using them as reasonable breeding water. Change the water in time every day and take some very good warming measures.

Red worms 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.

5. 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.

6. How much water should be used to raise red worms?

If you want to raise red worms, 5 liters of water will be enough.

However, if the water used to cultivate them is not appropriate, they may drown or die for other reasons. For example, water depth is an important factor. When cultivating 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. Therefore, not changing the water for a long time will also lead to the death of red worms.

1. Related information about red worms

1. Distribution of red worms

Red worms generally refer to blood worms, also known as chironomid larvae. They have a worm-like body and a dark red body color. They have a wide distribution range and can be seen in basically all kinds of water bodies, and their distribution numbers are very large.

2. The value of red worms

Red worms are rich in nutrients, including protein, fat, calories, etc., and can be used as natural bait for economic aquatic animals. Moreover, red worms are of appropriate size, have good palatability, and are nutritionally comprehensive, which can promote the growth and development of fish. Red worms will also ingest organic debris in the breeding pond, which not only does not pollute the water body, but also has a certain leech purification effect. Red worms can also accelerate the circulation of water substances and can eliminate organic pollution to a certain extent. In addition, red worms are also used as excellent indicator organisms for monitoring water environment and pollution conditions.

3. Red worm price

Generally, the price of red worms of different specifications, grades and seasons is different, and the price of male red worms is higher than that of female worms. Usually the retail price of male worms ranges from 30-100 yuan/jin, while the female worms are relatively cheaper, ranging from more than ten yuan to 20-30 yuan/jin.

2. What are the profits and prospects of red worms?

1. The prospects of breeding red worms

Blood worms have a wide range of uses, whether they are used as bait for aquatic animals, for purifying water, or for testing water conditions. Moreover, as more aquatic organisms have been farmed in recent years, the demand for red worms has also increased, so the prospects for breeding are still promising.

2. Profits from breeding red worms

Generally, each acre can produce 150 kilograms of red worms per batch, and a batch can be harvested every 10 days or so. The profit per acre in a year can reach more than 50,000 yuan.

3. How to raise red worms?

The difficulty of breeding red worms is not great, but if you want to obtain high quality and high efficiency, you must master the following points:

1. The red worm breeding pond should choose a paddy field with sufficient water source and convenient irrigation and drainage as the breeding base, or choose a place with sufficient water source to convert dry land into paddy field; then prepare a silt cement pool rich in organic matter with a depth of about 50 cm and a water depth of 20-30 cm as the red worm breeding pond.

2. The introduction and inoculation of red worms are very simple, and the best time is spring and summer. Just sprinkle the collected red worms evenly in the cultivation pool. Remember to sprinkle fermented organic fertilizer into the pool water regularly in spring every year to keep the pool water fertile.

3. During the growth period, organic fertilizer should be sprinkled regularly or land grass should be directly added to allow the land grass to rot and ferment in the water. In summer, when the light and temperature are strong, the water in the pool should be appropriately increased, or a sunshade, grape rack, etc. should be built above the breeding pool.

4. Since bloodworms mainly feed on organic debris in the mud, and especially like sweet and sour bait, agricultural and sideline product waste, well-rotted organic fertilizer, etc. are good baits for them; generally, they are fed once every three days during the peak production period, and the amount of feeding is determined by the number of bloodworms in the breeding pond. In addition, water discharge should be stopped half an hour before and after feeding to avoid the loss of manure and other wastes. In addition, it should be noted that the feeding of each bait should be determined by the expected yield and the amount of remaining bait in the field.

9. How to raise and breed red worms at home?

In the natural environment, red nematodes mainly feed on bacteria, yeast, algae and organic debris (fragments of plants and animals). To artificially culture red nematodes, you must prepare the culture solution in advance. Take 4.5 kg of fertile soil (soil from the garden or vegetable garden) and 1 kg of straw (cut into 2 cm), pour them into a large tank, add 50 kg of water, stir thoroughly, place at 15-18℃ for 3-4 days, then filter with gauze. The filtrate is called the stock solution. Take a certain amount of the stock solution and pour it into another tank, then add 2-4 times the pond water, so that the culture solution is prepared. At this time, you can put a small amount of red nematodes into the culture solution, and keep the water temperature at 18-25℃. The red nematodes grow very fast and will multiply in large quantities to feed goldfish or other fish. In the process of cultivating red nematodes, add the stock solution at any time to ensure sufficient feed for the fish and worms.
