New Culture Is Here : Walter Worms !!
Posted: Fri Nov 08, 2013 3:39 pm
Hello Everyone and a Happy Diwali To You !
We have now got Walter Worms.
The above photos are of an oats + yeast culture
Thanks to Amal Pendse for sharing this with us
Thanks to Deepak for collecting this via Amit
Those hobbyists who are breeding and have very small tiny frys this will be good for them.
Its as easy as microworms to maintain
For an idea on sizes, walter worms are half the size of microworms. Banana worms are quarter the size of microworms
Right now I have one culture running on oats + yeast and I just started another using a brown bread slice
My Microworms have been going fungussy off late. Once I revive them or get a new culture from another hobbyist I will put some walter worms and micro worms side by side to compare the same.
Please give me suggestions on how to compare them because I dont have a microscope. I thought of putting a drop each on a black plastic surface and clicking a close up photo.
For those of you who need more information, please read more via these links (Ive not gone deep in the theory)

@Mumbai hobbyists
Some of you please take this culture and keep it running so we dont loose out on this
You can pick this up from me at the MAM
In case any other city location needs this and are willing to take the responsibility to distribute it to the rest of the hobbyists in that state or city let me know if you have anyone coming to Mumbai or visiting your city from Mumbai Or we will make arrangements to have it couriered to you but you need to be patient on the couriering.
Note : This is strictly not for LFS or one time joinees who dont contribute on the forum at all. One such person is "Amod Pingle IAH ID BirdsUnderTheSea" who has taken grindals. Ive put him on my black list. So careful with whom you share these cultures with.
