    Hi all.
    I have read that one can grow white worms for tropical fish. In my case I want to feed them to my discus. I have also read that they are high in protein so rather good for discus. The articles also claim that due to them grown on land, they do not have any parasites that can be passed on in water.

    Have any of you ever grown white worms? If so, share with us how you did this and where you got your cultures from.

    Thanks

    I've never heard of this particular worm, so I looked it up! :smile1:

    (from Wikipedia).

    It will be interesting to hear if anyone has cultured them.
