As opposed to the short length of midge fly larvae, glycera worms can be as long as fourteen-inches long! They are classified as bristle worms and have a venomous bite. However, the glycera worm is notably larger than the midge fly larva. Secondly, glycera worms, like midge fly larvae, are also marine worms and also make good fish food. These worms commonly swim up people’s drains and end up in their toilet bowls, but they are nothing to worry about! Midge fly larvae are completely harmless, as they do not bite or possess venom, and are not parasitic. Their heads tend to be darker than the rest of their bodies which makes it easier to tell one end from the other. Midge fly larvae are thin, segmented, and have cylindrical, curving bodies. These worms are very tiny (usually not even reaching an inch in length) and make great fish food for domestic fish given their high iron content, and they are a common purchase among fish owners and farmers.
Usually they will just eat decomposing organic matter, but sometimes they have been known to prey on smaller invertebrates. First of all, red midge fly larvae are marine worms that scavenge for food at the bottom of freshwater bodies, such as ponds, lakes and streams.
