Night Crawlers

I went to the local hardware store today to get some earthworms for my JD because he's not been eating lately. Here's the link about his problems... http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=103832
But anyways, I cut some up and put them in with him and he ignored them like usual, but I came in later and found that he had eaten them, Thank god!
But I was like hmm maybe the rest of my fish would like these. So I cut them up and while I was at the hardware store I bought a pair of huge tweezers to hold the worms in the tanks and my ACF scarfed them down like he was starving, and then I cut them into tiny pieces for my little ADF, and my bettas.
Talk about a feeding frenzy, my bettas went insane for them! I've never seen happier fish! Who would have known.
Has anyone else ever fed their fish earthworms?

I feed little redlings to my discus, although some people would frown at this, colect then from the compost heap and condision them in moss for a few days.

be carefull with worms bought from bait shops as some farms spray, chemicals on them to control paricites.

I would dig my own worms. I have never tried to feed my fish worms before I have bought them frozen blood worms before. I think I will dig them some this evening. I bet my oscar would love them I dont know about the angels. I will let you all know how this turns out. I should be interseting where they have never had worms before.

We buy eathworms from our local fish & reptile store and feed them to our PSG, our Puffers, our Parrot Cichlid, Curly the Geko and Boris the Frog.

Even our BBGs will attack a worm three times bigger than them and rip it apart!
