- Hi all,
In todays video I run you through the easiest live fish food to culture at home.
Vinegar Eels are cheap and easy, super low maintenance and so accessible it doesn't make sense not to have some.
Culturing Vinegar Eels will make feeding small fry much easier. and cleaner and many fry require small foods like vinegar eels as a first food such as rainbowfish, tetras, danios and more.

Hey Blake! One of my favorite cultures. So simple and great for those starter fry
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
love checking out RUclips wondering what I'm gonna watch and there's a video from you.Great video. Easy to follow. thank! 😀
Perfect! Hopefully I can maintain that enthusiasm lol. Cheers as always mate
Right on edStar, I know exactly what you're saying and I'm always happy to see a Blake's video ❤️🙏💪🌿🐟🌿💚
Super good easy fry food.
Great tutorial mate.
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.
It gets diluted over time the way i do it so i start with 100% vinegar
Great update video
Thank you Blake! I think I need try these.
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?
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
thanks for this video
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.
Thanks man!
So interesting & cool!❤️🇦🇺
Inspired. mate. Aaron has some cultures, but i never paid much attention. Having issues with my microworms at the moment in the cold so might switch to these.
Sit them nearby your aquarium lights to keep them warm
Man, well designed
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.
Cool to know thanks
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. 😊
What happen if I use tap water?
The chlorine might kill them
@@BlakesAquatics thanks for the information. My vender eel ok with my tap water.
👍
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
Not much if at all
Could vinegar eels have the potential to change your water pH?
I find microworm cultures alot more easier.
If you feed them with tbe vinegar then yes definitely
How long from starter culture to feeding do you think?
Give it a month to mature
Hmmm... Wonder who might send me a starter culture......
can vinegar eels culture get mold and go bad or is the white stuff the mother forming ?
The white stuff is probably just decomposing pieces of apple or filter floss
@@BlakesAquatics awesome thanks
first
