Where do yall get live bloodworms?

 

[hotsauce]

ill see if he can send me pics. they are not bloodworms. he fed frozen bloodworms early on but i dont think they came back to life. i use to get get live bloodworms from a lfs in the college area off of el cajon blvd, for those familiar with san diego. have not seen live in a long time. you can buy live bloodworms from seaforth landing, but i believe they are a saltwater bloodworm that is approx. 6-8" in length.

No I was just curious because live bloodworms would've been the last thing I would guess.

have they damaged or hurt his fish in anyway? like latching onto the fishes body?
