Sorry for the disappointment, I don't know anything about them. Did they come from a pet store?

Have you tried looking it up on Google? I can't think of any better suggestions right now.

It says to put them in a cup or tubaware then the fridge and do W/c every day or other day...I have them in the fridge in a cup with tin foil over it n holes poked in the foil. Anyone else do this? I need them to stay alive till monday because Im going away then.

I used to do that. It worked well. Now I keep them in a 1/2g and feed them occasionally. That works, too. There were some directions on their care recently on dwarfpuffers.com. You might want to give that a looky-loo.

Okay. Yes, but maybe blackworms are different? They may need to breath air, I really don't know. Okay, bye now.

They look alike some what..Bye?

I've thought I read something on how they need the water shallow enough where they could breath air. I don't know.

I said bye because I better get outta here before I say something I regret, as I really have no clue.

Oh lol...I have just enough water to cover them fully.

Yes, they do need to reach air. I would suggest getting them a container that's got a big footprint and filling that with shallow water.
