Hi, I bought a white worm culture from your auction on Sunday, could you please tell me the correct feeding proceedure to keep the culture going. I was very impressed by the auction, it was a great opportunity to by young home bred fish, unfortunately I had only set my new tank up two days before and couldn't take advantage of the fish on sale, however I did make some good purchases. Would you please let me know when your next sale will be. Thanks.

Hi Barbara, glad you enjoyed the auction, the next one will be some time as yet to be decided in October.
As for the white worms dinner. Ordinary white bread, let it dry out nice and crispy (don't toast it to dry it), crumble it to as fine a powder as you can (I put it in the liquidiser, just don't tell the missus :-)) then just sprinkle it lightly over the top of the culture, as they eat it, add more.

Thank you Dave I did as you suggested regarding the bread and the worms do seem to have multiplied but they are not collecting on the glass slide, any idea's how to achieve this? when I bought the culture the glass had a blob of something on the glass and the worms were on that, which made it easy to scrape them off to feed them to the fish.Hope you can help again

Nothing magic about the "blob", just a small amount of bread paste, the glass maintains a damper area in the media, the worms come to and collect around the food source, you pick them up.
