Anyone know of a good way to keep nightcrawlers fat and healthy in their containers for several months (3 months more or less). Cause I have a bunch of them. Thanks!

Thats a sign that you need to fish more.:Big Grin:
Once you open up a few rotten containers in the frig you won't bother to keep them anymore. We just feed the fish when we are done.

Keep them in the fridge and feed them used coffee grounds. The worms will eat the grounds and they get very active

Hey, Thats what I was going to say. :LOL::Wink:
make sure if there is a dead one pull it out as it will spoil the rest of your worms in the container.

I like to use a spoonful or two of coffee and a drop of water.
I've even used food coloring but things start lookin' weird after a while :LOL:
