Well, here we go again. I'd like to restart this thread. Later today I'll post some photos.
Question #1 for winter 2013/2014.
I've been trying a variety of live foods for my redear sunfish. Pelleted feed is limiting, as far as number of fish because of it's tendency to cloud the water and degrade the quality.
By far, the best thing I've found so far is red wigglers!
I ordered 5,000, and the fish are going through them like crazy. It had crossed my mind to culture them a little bit. I think I would need to produce about 50 pounds of them each year to make it worth my effort.
Is this an unrealistic goal? I know I have the space to do it. And I also have the ability to modify temperatures in that space. Any ideas if there is a temperature range that would be best for this sort of endeavor? Thanks in advance!
I am looking forward to seeing some pictures.
I am feeding five RES that I moved indoors into a 75 gallon aquarium small fathead minnows, nightcrawlers, and bloodworms.
