First time using Live Black Worms

[umpbump]

I usually feed my fish frozen brine shrimp, frozen blood worms, pellets, flakes and live ghostshrimp on rotation. I tried live black worms for the first time yesterday, and my fish love them!

however i have a gravel substrate and once the worms reach the bottom they immediately start worming their way into the gravel.

now my question is should i let them stay down there? or should i stur up the gravel to get them out? once they go in my cory cat will get to a few but not all.

Not to worry, the few that temporarily escape will be found by the fish later for desert. Anything that possibly escapes them will meet the gravel vac soon enough.

what kind of fish are in the tank??

as Dr.Joe said, mot fish will not stop until they get every last blackworm out of your substrate. ive seen my 2 foot pacu sucking around the sand to find one tiny blackworm

blackworms to fish are like a filet mignon to a bum. they will ensure there isnt the tiniest morsal left they can reach
