I've tried flake food, Hikari algae discs, anacharis, part of an unsalted
cracker, bread ('wonder'bait), a fallen maple & oak leaf from outside and
even a dead cricket & dead minnow from my tank! I've tried feeding in room
temp during the day & at night after water changes & in the fridge. I try to
leave each food in for a couple of days at least. I didn't notice any
consumption. I didn't notice any dead worms either! Just skinnier ones!
I keep them on the top shelf in square glass pyrex dishes covered with a
paper towel and stacked alternating lengthwise & crosswise. (No substrate.)
I change the water 2x a day & the fridge is kept at 34-36 degrees F.
Should I try a better brand of flakes? I'm not happy with the thought of
them starving!
Any help appreciated,
Amy
