CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to feed fish with red worms (How to feed fish with red worms)

1. How long can fish survive if you feed them 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.

2. What is the correct way to feed fish with red worms?

First, wash the red worms thoroughly, and wash them back and forth about 10 times. On the one hand, it is to generally clean the impurities on the surface, and on the other hand, it allows the waste to be discharged from the body. There is also another way of saying that it is to put the red worms in clean water for 4 hours before taking them out. Although the methods are different, the actual effect is similar.

The second step is to pick out the dead insects and soak the rest in high-concentration potassium permanganate for about half an hour, and wash it back and forth several times to ensure that the potassium permanganate is basically diluted.

The third step is to add vitamin B12 to the water used to soak the red worms. Soak them for about an hour, then take them out and put them in the refrigerator.

The above three steps are not strict templates. For example, salt can be added directly in the cleaning process in the first step; the disinfectant in the second step can be replaced with a combination of yellow powder and salt. In short, as long as it can remove the bacteria and parasites on the red worms, it will be fine.

3. 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.

4. How to feed fish with red worms to make them grow faster?

First, wash the red worms thoroughly, and wash them back and forth about 10 times. On the one hand, it is to generally clean the impurities on the surface, and on the other hand, it allows the waste to be discharged from the body. There is also another way of saying that it is to put the red worms in clean water for 4 hours before taking them out. Although the methods are different, the actual effect is similar.

5. How to feed fish with live red worms?

Before feeding live blood worms to fish, they need to be washed with salt water two or three times, and then disinfected with ozone. After disinfection, they can be washed with clean water and fed.

6. How do you feed frozen bloodworms to fish?

You can feed frozen bloodworms to fish using the following method. When feeding frozen bloodworms to ornamental fish, you can thaw the frozen bloodworms first, rinse them under the tap for a few minutes, and then feed them directly into the fish tank after they are completely thawed.

7. What is the correct way to feed bloodworms to fish?

Before feeding bloodworms to fish, they need to be washed with salt water two or three times, and then disinfected with salt. After the disinfection is completed, they can be fed with clean water. When disinfecting live bloodworms, try to avoid using potassium permanganate to disinfect them. Potassium permanganate residues are harmful to fish. It is best for breeders to feed bloodworms to avoid parasites attached to live worms and cause harm to fish.

8. What is the correct way to feed fish with frozen bloodworms?

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.

9. How to feed red worms correctly?

When feeding blood worms to fish, be careful not to feed them directly, as blood worms contain a lot of bacteria and must be filtered several times with clean water before feeding.
