Earthworm for the Arowana

Earthworms are a favorite and are eagerly taken. They are very healthy and nutritious with minimal risk of disease transmission. Earthworms can be collected with the use of use some potassium permanganate by dissolving the crystals in a bucket of water until the water turns medium purple in color. Pour the water onto an area where you think the worms have burrowed and wait a short while. Within a couple of minutes, if there are any worms, they will be popping up out of the ground. The effects of the potassium permanganate on Arowana has yet to be studied. I would recommend against its use. Make sure that no insecticides are used in the place where you catch your earthworms. Feeding the earthworm with nutritious food to clear the soil and transfer the nutrient is highly recommanded.
