CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to raise red worms in a fish tank (How to raise red worms in a fish tank)

1. Is it okay to keep live red worms in the fish tank for a long time?

It can be kept in a fish tank for a long time, provided that there are no fish in the fish tank.

Red worms can be raised in water, and the main method used to raise them is water culture. As long as the correct method is adopted, red worms can be raised in water for a long time.

Another way is to temporarily preserve the red worms in water, which can preserve the red worms for a longer time. But at the same time, you may need to pay attention to other environmental factors, such as the water temperature should not be too high, the water quality should not be too poor, etc. After doing these, the red worms can be preserved in water for a longer time.

If there are fish in the fish tank, they will eat the bloodworms. And long-term consumption of bloodworms will affect the fish's stomach and intestines.

2. How to raise red worms for ornamental fish?

The remaining red worms can be cultivated for a period of time. Since they like a humid environment, they can be raised in water. In weather where the temperature is not too high, the container containing the red worms can be placed directly in a cool place.

In summer, you need to put the container with red worms in the refrigerator and adjust the temperature to between 0-5 degrees. The water in the container needs to be changed regularly, usually every 2-3 days. If there are dead red worms, they need to be cleaned out in time.

3. How to raise red worms?

If you just want to raise it casually, then I tell you, use this small fish tank, buy some live red worms, and if the weather is good and you are lucky, it can survive for ten days to half a month, or maybe even longer. Just look at its face, no need to read on.

If you want to raise it well and keep it for as long as possible, you can refer to this and discuss it together. First of all, it is not a goldfish, so this round goldfish tank is not suitable. It can be classified as a tropical fish. It is easy to get sick or inactive when the temperature is too low or too high, but it is not as demanding on temperature as ordinary tropical fish. If you are sure you want to raise it, go buy a square tank. It doesn’t need to be too big if you raise one (it is best to buy a finished tropical fish tank if possible). It only needs to be able to swim and turn around in it. If you have good hands-on skills and like to study, come and assemble it. If you are in the late stage of laziness, just use that tank and raise it like that. Playing with tropical fish tanks is a pit, so be careful, because once it dies, all these investments will be wasted, and continuing to buy and raise it is also a pit.

1 Filter (green frame) is optional. If you add it, you don't need to use a siphon to suck up the feces every day. It can also produce nitrifying bacteria to purify the water quality. It's okay if you don't want it. A small wall-mounted one costs about 20 yuan.

2. The heating rod (blue box) should be 16 to 25 degrees. This is necessary. If the temperature is not well controlled, it is easy to die. If you want to stay with it for a long time, you still have to strive for this. A 25W model is enough for a small tank, about 15 yuan

There are also claims online that Axolotls do not need temperature control, but I am skeptical.

First, the axolotl, also known as the Mexican axolotl, is a species unique to Mexico. As we all know, Mexico is a tropical country. I don't believe that an animal unique to tropical regions has no requirements for temperature.

Second, the cute hexagonal dinosaur is only a juvenile, okay? Can it really withstand all kinds of cold and temperature changes with its small and delicate skin? The merchant said that it doesn't need temperature control, which may mean that when it grows up, this hardened armor is certainly not afraid of ordinary low temperatures.

3. Oxygen pump (red frame) I think it is necessary. If you don't want to see it raising its head to the surface of the water to breathe, just buy one. It is not expensive. The most important thing is that the oxygen pump is very good for its "horns". With enough oxygen, the "horns" will be lush and beautiful. It costs about 15 to 20 yuan.

4. The lamp (yellow frame) is optional and can be replaced by a desk lamp

ps The prices are based on Taobao. After you buy these and install them, you can release the dinosaurs. First of all, you cannot use tap water directly, as there is chlorine in tap water. It is best to expose it to the sun for a day or two or leave it for a few days before use. You can also use rainwater or water from rivers and ponds, but there may be bacteria, so you have to control it yourself. The fish tank does not need to be too full, just three-fifths will be enough, and then you can change the water every three to five days or longer. Do not change all the water, just scoop out one-third and add one-third. When feeding red worms, be careful not to feed too many. It will be ugly and unhygienic if you cannot eat too much. Feed a few each time and then feed after they have eaten.

4. How to correctly put frozen red nematodes into the fish tank for feeding?

First, frozen bloodworms carry a lot of bacteria, so they need to be soaked in salt water before feeding them to fish.

Second, frozen bloodworms are stored in the refrigerator for a long time. If they are fed to fish without being thawed, it will have a certain impact on the fish's stomach.

5. How to raise small red worms for feeding fish?

Water fleas. Also called red worms; they are rich in nutrition and easy to digest for fish, making them an ideal natural food. Prepare a 600mm old fish tank, put in rice washing water, keep the temperature at 23-25 ​​degrees, buy some fish worms, and put them in the tank as eggs. Fish worms (referring to water fleas, also called red worms) are parthenogenetic. They reproduce very quickly in rice washing water, and can be caught and fed to fish after three days. Draw out some water at ordinary times and add it to the old water in the fish tank, and you can use it for a long time.

6. How to raise the small red worms that are used to feed fish?

If the red worms you mentioned refer to water fleas, you can prepare a bucket and use the water replaced from the fish tank to raise them, and feed them with egg yolk water or yeast on a regular basis. If you mean bloodworms, which are strip-shaped like earthworms, it is impossible to raise them at home because bloodworms grow in some dirty places, and adult bloodworms will turn into mosquitoes and fly away. It is recommended that you go to some flower and bird markets to buy them, or use feed instead. I hope this helps you.

7. How to cultivate red worms for feeding fish?

How to cultivate bloodworms for fish feeding:

1. 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 an excellent opportunity to collect red worms.

2. When breeding 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 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 and put a wet red cloth on the container to keep it moist.

3. It is best to use a container with a larger area in contact with the air, because the red worms will float to the water surface and make breathing-like movements, so if there are too many of them, some of them may not be able to compete for a position and die.

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

5. There are specialized breeding farms, most of which ferment rice bran, sawdust, banana peels, bagasse, sludge, pigeon droppings, etc. to make breeding feed. For home breeding of red worms, you can use yeast powder soaked in water to feed them, but the amount must be controlled.

6. 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. In winter, 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 to above 28℃, the red worms begin to reproduce in large numbers.

8. What should you pay attention to when feeding frozen bloodworms to goldfish?

We can prepare a basin and fill it with tap water. Then put the frozen red worms in to thaw. Do not pour hot water, place the basin in the sun or other warm places, and let it thaw naturally.

After thawing, use a small scoop to remove impurities and foreign objects in the basin for initial filtration. Then use chopsticks to stir the water in the basin, use the vortex to clean the remaining impurities and foreign objects, and then use the scoop to remove them.

After cleaning, pour out the remaining water in the basin, leaving the red worms. Then use a straw to take out some water from the fish tank, pour it into the basin, and soak the red worms. Then wait for two to three hours before feeding.

During this process, you must be careful and meticulous. If you find that the red worms have changed color or deteriorated, do not use them. I hope everyone can communicate with each other.

9. Can red worms be kept in fish tanks?

Red worms can be kept in fish tanks. Oxygen should be added, filtration should be strengthened, and the water quality should be kept clean. A small amount of salt can be added to the new breeding environment for sterilization to prevent the occurrence of diseases. However, if you think that not adding salt will not affect its growth, you can choose not to add it. Because the map fish is a freshwater fish, adding too much salt when raising it is not conducive to its maintenance.
