Farming worms for fish food in ponds?


I am particularly interested on the utilization of composting worm as fish food in ponds, cages, aquaria and pens. Can you feed these worms to aquatic organisms like fishes?

They make great fish food. I raised worm at one time for my own use.The biggest mistake I made when first starting off was I didn’t put holes in the bottom of the trough I was raising them in.One day we got a 3in. rain and all of my worms washed out of the container.They need loose loam soil to live in.I fed them cornmeal and old coffee ground.Good Luck.

    Yes you can feed them to fish. When I take my neice and nephew fishing we get several of the worms out of the compost heap and use them for bait.

    If you are just getting started you can go to a store like Gander Mountain or Bass Pro Shop and buy a worm starter kit. They are cheap and come with everything you need to have your own little worm farm.
