I was hoping to start a discussion about what members culture what foods and how it has worked out for them.
I've been on and off culturing Grindal Worms and I've been culturing Mircoworms and my fry love it. Culturing vinegar worms are the easiest and they live for a long time in plain aquarium water easily making it good fry food.
I know its pretty common to culture live food. Which do you culture and whom do you feed it too?
I have cultured grindal worms for a few years, they seem to be pretty easy once you get the hang of them but they do take some getting used to. They will also live in the water for several days and allow for fry to pick at. Especially bottom orientated fish.
I have tried off and on to culture daphnia but tend to get impatient with them and dump the whole culture into a tank or dump fish into the culture.
