planaria

[cami gilbert]

well i have a science fair project that has to do with planaria dissection (its the effect of feeding on the regeneration of planaria). and i've searched everywhere but i cant find how much to feed my planaria. i have a low budget so i dont want to go out and buy much unless its at a low cost. they say planaria eat hard boiled egg yolk but how many grams should i give about 7 planaria?

 

i just need this information to help me move on with my project. help please?

I'm not a planaria expert, but I suggest you track down a few professors on the Internet, email them, and ask them in an email. Don't mass mail it, though. Individually email each person.

 

I don't know if anyone here does anything with flatworms or has. But I think sending out emails will help.
