Someone please school me about blackworms. I've been considering live food for my fish for quite some time. I bought some brine shrimp eggs and was thinking about hatching a batch for all my fish including the prego shrimp. But then I came across one of the vendors selling blackworms and read great reviews. Plus the prices you can beat with a stick! I have an albino poly, 5 cory cats, 3 bb gobies, several types of shrimp, 2 danios, some tetras, a blue crayfish, and 2 mollies (Not all in the same tanks mind you LOL). Will all my fish eat black worms? What is the nutritional value? How do I care for them? How long do they last? Etc. How long would 1lb last? I was thinking about 3lbs.

I read you should rinse them in cold water and they should be stored uncovered in the fridge...I also saw somewhere about keeping them in a tank and feeding them brown paper bags???? :confused:
