Hello Al,

Would you recomend Black Worms for growing out juvies?
Hi Josef!
Absolutely! They have a very high protein and fat content which growing fish require...and they are a relatively Clean Fish food, that does not foul the water and is eagerly consumed. I have many customers that grind them up and feed them to fry as well, myself included there.

hth,

I have done it before with Flachens, they grow fast, I'm about to start growing out some again, and the first thing next week I'm doing is ordering some

As soon as they are big enough to eat something other than BBS I start feeding Al's Freeze dried black worms. Put the cubes in a coffee grinder and grind them to whatever size I need.

Excellent!

Once I get my setup going I plan on growing out 12 Red Turqs. I know where to get my blackworms!

Oh, and I too am allergic to bloodworms eewww!
