Clean Cheato and white worm culture

Time to trim some cheato.

Cheato was purchased from Algaebarn and Dr reef. Has ALLOT of pods and I raise hawaiian strombus conch's in my refugium so a chance to have eggs.
10$ for a full quart size bag or free if your a NJreefers supporting member.

Have 2 whiteworm culture setups. Will supply vitamins and supplements for feedings. All you need is some greek yogurt fed every couple days. They do need cooler temps, so I keep them in a wine fridge at about 55 degrees.
20$

Nice.
I would buy the cheato but it dies in my sump after a few months.
Always wanted to cultivate the worms but my wife would freak if I put them in the fridge.
When we dated I kept frozen mice / rats in the freezer for my son's snakes. She would nit eat anything out there. Lol

Back in college I moved back home for a bit, but I had a snake rack with about 5 ball pythons right in the corner of my room. Was ok for a couple months until she called me one day screaming about the snakes. lol.

Then I used to buy frozen mice in bulk. They were wrapped in foil packaging, but when I moved out I forgot about them. Got another call screaming. :roflmao:

Cheato I bought 2x from algaebarn. First time died completely. Dr. reef cheato was nice and thick.
In the beginning I was dosing cheatogrow to help with the growth. Worked a little too well and is now bottoming out my nitrates.
