Re: [Killietalk] need microworm starter culture! looking for microfexstarter too.
Harry,
There are lots of various nematodes that look and act like microworms.
The strain introduced at a BAKA meeting, some years back, by Herr Walter
was different only in the longevity when immersed. They stay alive in
the tank for many hours, as opposed to the way regular microworms drown.
We distributed them as Walter Worms, to emphasize that distinction.
That's where they got the name. AFAIK, there is no size difference,
particularly, and I cannot tell them apart without drowning some.
