my peacocks love earthworms i get mine from my backyard just turn the sprinkler on for a hour before dark then collect. i collect my own that way they dont have toxins or chemicals from fertilizer or weedkiller that may harm your fish. i save money getting my own and my fish fed worms grow alot faster then those that dont.

they are 3" peacocks. I am trying to get them some variety in their diet. I tried to convert them from feeders to dry food (massivores broken into smaller pieces) and they just spit it out. So I wanted to see if earthworms would work. Do you cut them into pieces for a fish that size or give it to them whole? I would do blackworms, but I have tried to keep them once before and it was a smelly disaster. lol Are there any other foods?
