Feeding blackworms

[nashnutny]

I currently have some black worms in the fridge. I want to feed some to the bettas. Do I take the amount I want out and rinse them as well as let them warm up a bit? Or just feed them straight.

Hello there

Well this what I do I get the ammount that I wanna feed to them get a small little cup rinse them with cold water multyple times. Blackworms have been known to carry many icky diseases. Also when ur keeping them in ur fridge u gotta wash them everyday.

Thanks. I changed the water today and discovered a bunch had tried to make a break for it! I rinsed a couple off earlier and fed them to a pair. Of course, they loved them!!!

What can be fed to them to use them as a starter culture? How long do these normally last in the fridge?

Thanks

What happens to the black worms that the fish ignore??? Both of the ones in one tank ignored them and let them float to the bottom and of course they went into the gravel.
