    Yes you can, you'll probably have to chop them up, unless the earthworms are tiny.

    I have a worm farm with red wriggler worms for my cichlids.
    They breed quickly and i feed worms almost everyday.
    I think it's excellent fish food!

    They would have to be very small, and possibly chopped up too.

    Keep them in a box of damp sawdust or similar for a day or two, to give them time to pass the soil and other organics in their stomachs.
