Here’s a dumb question. I noted that many turn the worm feeder upside down when feeding Al’s FDBW. Sounds like a great idea! My cone and the ring separate from each other. What type of glue or adhesive do you use to fix the cone and ring together? I assume silicone? Maybe yours came as a single unit.

I've used aquarium silicone on them in the past, lately I've just been securing them together with fishing line...either way has worked for me.

Honestly they are so cheap they probably arent worth fixing.I have a whole mess of them I bought to add to stock but never did.If anyone wants some just mention it on your next order and I will include them free WHILE i have them. I personally dont use them on either the cubes or loose worms I feed.

If you have the Lee's type, the cone portion makes a nice strainer for Python gravel vacs.

Fishing line. Have not thought about that -- probably because it might upset the fish! lol.

That's true. It's not broke. It came separable. I gather from your response that there are those that are not.

It is a Lee-type. That's an idea!
Thanks to all the helpful responses.
