how to keep blackworms alive?

[mkoff32]

I have been feeding my fire bellieds live black worms for a while now. The problem is I can't seem to keep them alive for more than like 4 or 5 days. I have been putting them in a tupperwear container with holes in the top and putting them in the fridge. By the 5th day they are all dead.

Changing the water on a regular basis will help out. The water should be treated/aged tap water and should be done everyday to every other. It is important to change the water right after purchase to get rid of any bad water/material.

I put mine in the fridge and change the water about every other day with refrigerated tank water.
