Going to cultivate earthworms to feed my 26 loaches (1.5"-10".) Generally costs $4/15, so it makes sense, and my loaches just tear into them. Hopefully this will lead to increased growth if these super slow growing fish.

When I had my wormery I fed worms regularly. Maybe this is why my clowns growth has slowed. I feed mussels and NLS cichlid pellets as my staple atm.
 
Cut earthworms make great food for CL's. Mine go nuts for them when i have a few left over from troutfishing. I'd like to start feeding them earthworms on a more frequent basis
 
Got the vermiculture bin set up with 1 lb of red wigglers. The loaches got a nice sample, but got to allow time for the worms to reproduce. My loaches will have a primary diet of massivore, NLS thera A, algae wafers, and these worms.
