Yeegfey Insectsales.com Micro Worm Culture (Live 8 oz.) - (2 Day Express)

Micro worms live for several weeks, but not more than a month. They grow quickly to maturity (about 3 days) and reach a maximum size (.45 ? 2 mm) in just six days Micro worms are extremely prolific and easy to grow at home. Since they are smaller than newly hatched brine shrimp, they are ideal for small fry. Small fry can be given micro worms as their first food, while extremely small fry need to feed on infusoria or similar for a while before they can switch to micro worms. Many small fish species, such as tetras, will actually appreciate micro worms throughout their entire life. Despite their common name, micro worms are not really worms ? they are nematodes. Micro worms are completely harmless to your fish and you can add live micro worms to the aquarium without risking the health of your pets. Ideally, micro worms enjoy the same sort of temperature that humans do. About 20-28 C or 70-75 F will find the culture of micro worms at it’s peak. There is some flexibility in the temperature, but the further that the culture strays from the ideal temperature, the less productive the culture will be. If the culture gets too “watery” and it bothers you (it doesn't seem to bother the worms too much) you can add a slice of bread to the container to soak up the slop. Because the bread will have some yeast in it, the effects are both to soak up the slop and to rejuvenate the culture with food.
