Has anyone here tried Eisenia fetida as fish food??? There seems to be a regular supply of these where I stay and it sounds like a better food than blood worms for bagrids.

There is a thread here <http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/view ... hp?t=40827>.

I've always fed my fish some earth-worms. Cichlids don't like Eisenia fetida, but it looks like most catfish don't differentiate between species.

cheers Darrel

Thanks Darrel! I think I will go ahead and try with a small culture.
