I picked up a container of 'skinny' earth worms for my rope fish and noticed that as soon as they hit the bottom of the tank they went vertical and dug into the substrate. I was worried that they were just going to die and rot so did a bit of searching. I found the following article of interest.
While I will hold on to the things in my fridge until I get the rope fish hand feeding I may throw in a couple now and then.
Here is what I wonder... OK, so earth worms seem to be able to live in an aquarium for quite a while digging into the substrate as long as the water's oxygen level is high which mine has to be. I wonder if they could be good for the substrate stirring things up and getting rid of garbage.
