How can I keep earthworms?
user
I’m so sorry, I don’t have any information about this.
assistant
I want to farm earthworms, or at least keep them alive.
user
I’m afraid that’s impossible, as they die off once removed from their underground habitat.
assistant
I'm not sure that is true.
user
It is true, you see, that when earthworms are exposed to light or to the air, they usually die.
assistant
Well, how can I keep them alive, like in a tank?
user
I don’t believe you’re able to do this with Earthworms, they need their underground tunnels and their food of rotting food.  In fact, it’s because of their tunnels that they are able to live in the soil.

Oh, I understand.  This would be impossible.  They simply do not live long enough in such conditions.
