If you read [MENTION=4856]l2h[/MENTION]ell's post He said "might" be what you are looking for? Your reply comes across a little bit blunt. Not intentional hopefully.

mbunamad Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 what ever happened to tubifex worms? seems they're out of style now. Many years ago I fed live tubifex worms to my Malawis. I bought them from Pet Country @ Slacks Creek. I had to keep them in an ice cream container under a dripping tap when wasting water was no big deal! Have you seen where they come from? Human poo septic tanks and who knows what other foul places. I was a noob back then and I wouldn't feed them now unless I knew where they came from via a reputable supplier. As a matter of fact I now feed live blackworms to my Bettas and wouldn't want tubifex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebelle Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 I'm not after grindal. I'm after white worms. They are a lot bigger. But white. PLEASE let me know if you find any! White worms used to be available (starter cultures) everywhere in pet shops years ago, as they are excellent fish food. Slowly they became harder to find, as white worms don't like heat, the culture just dies off. Now nobody seems to have any. So good luck with your search!

Farmboy99 Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Bump, cos I need live foods too. You can shovel tubifex worms from under any of the leaky pumps in the Capalaba sewage stations. All it takes is to know someone with a key and a confined space ticket.

l2h Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 and that is why tubifex have gone out of favour compared to blackworms tubifex carry too much bacteria in them you can also find tubifex in ponds around dairy farm sheds the common factor is poo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
