    Wash Your White Worms

    Blackworms will not multiply in the refrigerator, they are to busy shivering. Even in warmer temps they multiply very slowly. I mean you could feed two small fish maybe but thats about it. Whiteworms multiply very fast and double in a few weeks.

    Wash Your White Worms

    Whatever temp you live in is fine. They like it cool so don't keep in the sun. 70s is fine. I have them in my workshop all year long and I am on Long Island. Keep them rather damp.

    Wash Your White Worms

    It looks OK. I just got the worms but this looks better. You don't need a tank. I keep them in a shallow tupperwear thing with a cover that I put holes in. The worms need to be in the dark. I forgot to say that.

    Wash Your White Worms

    I realize 97% of anyone who is accidentally reading this has no idea what I am talking about. I like to feed my fish live worms and there are basically two types commonly available. Blackworms and whiteworms. Blackworms live in freshwater and you buy them in water in small portions or online...

    Who doesnt do water changes?

    I do water changes but I never change water as much as every two months. I change about 20% of my water four or five times a year.

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I went on R&R to Sydney Australia in 1970. When I was looking for my hotel in Sydney I was studying a map as I was standing at an intersection. These two guys come up to me and one of them says" Hey %$#(*@#./)&%# you,,, walk,,,,, man over.//;. In other words, I couldn't understand him and...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I perish that thought but we are supposed to move in April. I am going to "try" to move at the same time I close but I doubt that. If that doesn't happen my friend owns a LFS here and he will lend me a 55 gallon tank in his store to put my stuff in. It won't all fit but it is what it is...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    My tank seems to be doing well except I keep breaking the montipora's. It doesn't matter because I doubt they will survive the move because they are so delicate. I still have all my fish and I will try to name them. No, not like Bob, Harry and Penelope. 1 Copperband 2 mandarins 3 striped...

    Steam Punk Lamp

    I am working on 3 projects at once, which is a mistake. I have two lamps and a SteamPunk Airship that I am kind of excited about because I never built one before. That phone box with the brass bells will be a lamp. I ordered the ear piece and when you lift the ear piece, the light will come...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    So I got dressed in my insulated pants, boots, Carharts etc. and I am sweating my brains out and can't wait to get outside. I push on the door and I can't open it because the snow is halfway up the glass on the door. I manage to get it open just enough to get my hand out there and push some...

    Tank birthday and I'm a Geezer

    I took that ship thing out already, but it is still connected to the air hose so I can just drop it back in the tank if I have to. If I left it in there I would have to chop coraline and algae off of it and that ain't gonna happen thank you very much. :cool:

    Happy New Year guys. It's 6 degrees F Here now. Man weather. I drove through Times Square the day before the party but I am so glad I was not there last night when it was 9 degrees. :eek: Those are mostly tourists who go there. New Yorkers know better and have seen it before. 9 degrees, no...
