live blackworms?

[rekn]

i was reading a book about wrasses and it said they eat live blackworms and finicky feeders should be given this to help them start eating. where would you get said blackworms?

Many LFS have live black worms and/or blood worms.

are they the same thing?

Good question ... they look the same to me, but I'm not a biologist. ;-)

What exactly are blackworms?

Are they what we used to call Tubifex worms?
