Default Harvesting blood worms for aquarium feeding


"Ron Clon" wrote in message

Is there much of a danger from getting bloodworms from old standing
water in buckets left outside, and feeding these to fish in an
aquarium? I'm unsure if there is a high potential of disease transfer
or some other risk I may not know about. Any advice would be
appreciated. Well, most any advice. I'd like something better than
"If you are in any doubt, then you should not do it."

=================
I've fed them to aquarium fish with no problems at all. They're not exposed
to fish diseases unless you also have "sick" fish in the same water with
them. I've also used mosquito larvae I found in standing water outside.
