Culturing Tubifex worms

I think in the wild they are usually most abundant adjacent to sewer outfalls, in contaminated sediment, not sure I'd want to get too involved in that. Either way I reckon you'd need heavy organic feed. As a kid I used to buy it from LFS and had to trickle feed fresh water over it. If not it would go foul and rot.
 
Hi has anybody got any Leeds on where to buy tubifex I have been quoted £50 for 250 grms a little expencive I think.

Maybe someone out there can recommend a company that charges a reasonable rate.

Try ste Chester at premier aquatics. He gets in a comprehensive list of live foods.

I seem have quite a nice colony at the moment and just wondered if anyone had any tips on culturing?
Fish flakes and pellets work well with them. There are a few videos on YouTube from Filipino hobbyists who grow them for more info.
