Earthworm Problems

[furryrabbit]

I read on this forum that earthworms are good for fish. i put three small ones into my tank after washing them but they fell too fast and burrowed under my gravel. what should i do( and i dont use chemica;ls in the garden fyi)

Never fed them to my fish, but I believe your're supposed to clean them out by squeezing them (to get any extra poo out ) and then chop them up before adding them to your tank.

you either cut them very small to feed small fish or feed them to large fish.

i duno how your going to get them back out though. probably your going to have to go through all the gravel to find them btw they are probably dead now as they breathe air and can't get to air from the bottom of the fish tank, i think they need air and can't survive under water anyway.
