CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to care for red worms (how to care for red worms video)

1. 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.

2. How to raise red worms for feeding fish?

1. Container: It is better to use a hard plastic basin to raise red nematodes, and a washbasin is the best.

2. Washing: It is best to use water that has been left for a week to wash the red nematodes. When washing, use new water to gently disperse the red nematodes. When the red nematodes slightly sink to the bottom, but the dirty water particles have not yet sunk to the bottom, gently pour out the dirty water. Repeat several times until the red nematodes are washed clean. Wash at least twice a day.

3. Spitting out mud: Red nematodes will spit out mud, and the spitted out mud should be washed clean.

4. Water level: The water level for raising red nematodes should be half the height of the red nematodes cluster.

3. 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.

4. How to raise red worms?

To raise red worms, you must first collect them and then prepare the breeding containers. During the breeding process, you must do a good job of water quality management, light source control, feed feeding, etc. When the number of red worms increases, you must harvest them in time and dry them.

1. Red worm collection

Red worms like to live in fertile water with slow flow. Late spring and early autumn every year is the season when red 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 worms.

2. Cultivation vessels

When raising a small amount of bloodworms at home, you can take the river pond sludge together with the bloodworms and put them in a basin or glass container. It is best to soak them in 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 and put a wet red cloth on the container to keep it moist. It is best to use a container with a large area of ​​contact with air, because the bloodworms will float to the surface of the water and have a breathing-like movement, so if there are a lot of them, some of them may not be able to compete for a position and die.

3. Light source control

A light source is necessary for raising red worms, and the light source cannot be turned off at night. You can use a small light source (such as a 5-watt night light, etc.) at night, because red worms are too lazy to breathe, and if there is no light source, they will easily die the next day.

4. Feeding

Most large-scale professional red worm farms use rice bran, sawdust, banana peels, bagasse, sludge, pigeon manure, etc. to ferment and make them into breeding feed. Home-based red worm breeding can use yeast powder soaked in water to feed, but the amount must be controlled.

5. Harvest and Overwintering

When the number of red worms increases, they should be collected and dried in time. In late autumn and winter, the reproduction capacity of red worms is greatly weakened. When you can't see the red worms in the water tank, don't pour out the water in the tank, because they are hiding in the green algae. You can put the water tank in a sunny room or near the radiator. In spring, when the indoor temperature rises, the red worms come out again. When the room temperature rises above 28℃, the red worms begin to reproduce in large numbers.

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 at home?

To breed red worms, you can choose an open container with a large area exposed to air, then put fresh red worms in it and pour river water into the container to create a moist growth environment for the red worms. If the breeding time is long, the red worms should be cleaned regularly to clean the mucus they secrete.

How to breed red worms

1. Breeding environment

Red worms, also known as bloodworms, are the larvae of midges. They have a bright red epidermis and are worm-like. To breed red worms, you need to choose an open container with a large air contact area and a shallow depth, disinfect it, then put fresh red worms in it and add river water.

2. Clean regularly

During the growth process of red worms, they will secrete a kind of mucus, which will cause water pollution and deterioration. When breeding, the red worms and containers should be cleaned once a day to clean the mucus on the red worms and the inner wall of the container, and then replace with new river water for breeding.

3. Provide food

Red worms feed on humus in the soil and animal feces. When they are artificially bred, they can be provided with glucose solution or a solution made of yeast powder and water to supplement their nutrition. Red worms eat a lot, so they should be fed once a day to maintain their growth.

8. How to raise red worms?

Red nematodes: also known as water earthworms and red nematodes. The following are the steps to raise red nematodes.

1. In the natural environment, red nematodes mainly feed on bacteria, yeast, algae and organic debris. Therefore, in the process of artificially cultivating red nematodes, it is necessary to artificially produce the culture medium required for the growth of red nematodes.

2. Take 4.5 kg of fertile soil. The fertile soil can be soil from a garden or vegetable garden. It contains bacteria, yeast, and organic matter that red nematodes need. Prepare 1 kg of rice straw, cut it into about 2 cm long, pour it into a large vat with the fertile soil, add 50 kg of water, and stir thoroughly.

3. Let the raw materials stand at 15-18℃ for 3-4 days to fully react, then filter with gauze. The filtrate is called stock solution. Pour half of the stock solution into another tank, and add 2-4 times the amount of pool water. In this way, the culture solution is prepared.

4. At this time, you can put a small amount of red nematodes into the culture medium and keep the water temperature at 18-25℃. The red nematodes grow very fast and will reproduce in large numbers to feed goldfish or other fish.

5. During the cultivation of red nematodes, the original liquid should be added at any time to ensure that the red nematodes have enough feed.
