These are small white worms :-)
I grow them in a small plastic container, giving them dry baby gruel to eat, and they increase in number like weeds :-)
This is a makro photo, these animals are just a couple of mm long :-)
There are actually another species of springtail available here in Swden, and I will try to get some of those too, they are called Folsomia candica.
These are food for very small fry.
I hatch these in a plastic contaner that was used to keep ice cream in. I just add water, salt and brine shrimp eggs, and wait for a day or so...
