    I could use a feeder culture playlist from your videos- like a refresher for going over my feeders and getting better, cleaner and faster at it

    Thanks for the tips, I will try this method as I usually only used filter floss and it kept ok sinking to the bottom of the container.

      Put a fishing line through the floss . Pull floss up with line leaving space in neck for water. After harvesting push floss back down with a chopstick.

    Awesome advice Sir 👍
    Can you explain if you use pure acv or acv x water?
    Additionally can you use regular white vinegar instead of acv?
    Can you do a video tutorial using white vinegar to test if Vinegar eels will flourish and get a successful colony?

    • @BlakesAquatics
      @BlakesAquatics  3 роки тому +2

      I havent tried white vinegar, acv is just as easy to source so not sure why someone would want to preference one over the other.
      In the culture its pure acv.
      Cheers

      Sit them nearby your aquarium lights to keep them warm

    Hi Blake,
    Just received a culture of vinegar eels but the bag they came in was leaking all over the place.
    Anyways, set up the solution for them & dumped them in. However, the next day there was a whitish sediment on the bottom of the bottle I put them in. I have used a magnifier & flashlight & can't detect any movement in the bottle. Are they all dead & just laying on the bottom. Thanks for any help you can offer. 😊

    When you add the water for the eels to swim up through for you to collect the eels. Does that water mix with the vinger fluid

  • @censusgary
    @censusgary 5 місяців тому +1

    It looks like you use 100% cider vinegar as your culture medium. Most of the instructions I’ve seen say to use a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water.

    • @BlakesAquatics
      @BlakesAquatics  5 місяців тому

      It gets diluted over time the way i do it so i start with 100% vinegar

    Could vinegar eels have the potential to change your water pH?
    I find microworm cultures alot more easier.

    • @BlakesAquatics

      If you feed them with tbe vinegar then yes definitely

    can vinegar eels culture get mold and go bad or is the white stuff the mother forming ?

    • @BlakesAquatics
      @BlakesAquatics  3 роки тому

      The white stuff is probably just decomposing pieces of apple or filter floss

      No because you only remove the fresh water from the top to feed it, you just replace that with more fresh water. In time it will dillute but it takes a good while

    Vinegar eels actually eat “mother of vinegar,” not the apple. The mother of vinegar eats the apple, so to speak, and the eels eat the mother.
    Mother of vinegar is any of various AAB (acetic acid bacteria) species, usually along with some kind of yeast. There may be multiple species of both AAB and yeast in just one mother culture.
