COCO Worm feeding time

I thought I would start a thread on how I feed my coco worm. I use a plastic bottle with a tube attached, them I use a syringe to inject food (Phyto) into the tube

Thanks, I actually use the same method on a small derasa clam I have. It keeps those unwanted guests at the dinner table

Very cool idea. I haven't fed my cocoa worm since i've had it (almost a year).

I will usually leave it a good 1/2 hour, I want to make sure it gets enough.

Really!!!

These coco worms are non photosynthetic I believe so they should be target fed on occasion.

That's what I read when I was doing research on them before getting one.
