The aquarist should not attempt to raise tubifex. They live and feed on sewage, and may carry hepatitis or other potential pathogens. They may be successfully kept in cold running water without producing odor. Alternatively, 2 oz. of worms can be kept for up to three days in a medium sized bucket of cold water in a fridge.
