Hi all

This is sort of a weird question I'd imagine.

I found this worm in my blueberry pile. I guess he eats blueberry for a living and looks quite fat :D

Was wondering if it's ok that I just drop him into my tank? Should I rinse him well first?? :D


Thanks

always rinse stuff you are puting in the tank... unless you have trained or have a fish that is used to you puting odd things in for them to eat be prepared to take it out if they don't eat it
it can't be much different than feeding your fish a meal worm

I feed my fish live worms regularly. They are free and plentiful. I just dig them up in my backyard. Make sure you do wash it off to remove dirt. If the fish do not eat it, get it out of the tank before it rots.

Worm is still locked up in the plastic tub that the blueberry came in! I'll go and wash him a bit and feed him to my fishes during feeding time. So they would just think it's a moving flake!

It was dropped into the tank last night. At first none of the free swimmers noticed him. Maybe coz he was black, but as he sinks to the bottom the pictus cat spotted him and got him! Hahaha... well it's the first time I've ever fed them a worm! :D
