This auction is for a large two ounce starter culture of banana worms. Widely cultured and used as a first/second food for fry of many
species of freshwater tropical fish. This is a healthy, sizable culture that can be used to start mother cultures that will be ready to feed in short order.

Banana worms are a relatively newly acquired worm similar to the walter worms but apparently more prolific. My current strain in fact are almost scary in terms of population doubling time. They are also smaller than micro worms and share the wally worm's ability to stay alive in tank water longer than micro worms. After a few days of walter/banana worms, very small fry are able to progress to micro worms and then over the hump to newly hatched brine shrimp. Even newly hatched larger fry like cichlids will benefit immensely from a few days of walter/banana and micro worms.

These nematode worms thrive in a simple culture medium of oatmeal enriched with a small sprinkle of active baker's yeast - supplied with your starter. Room temperature up to about 85 F is acceptable, and the worm throw 40 or so young from the their 4th day on. There will ALWAYS be enough worms on hand for all the fry you can produce. Within literally days of starting your cultures with our large starter portion you will see the surface of your cultures shimmering with millions of worms. The white areas on the sides of the culture below are many thousands of worms.

You also receive a large ounce (30g) of Great Salt Lake Decapsulated Brine Shrimp Eggs (DBSE)

Decapsulated brine shrimp eggs are non-hatching and are fed as they are without the need for the messy and often uncertain process of hatching and harvesting baby brine shrimp. The shells have been removed, leaving the embryo and full nutritious yolk sac within untouched. Baby brine shrimp begin losing nutritious value as soon as they hatch and start consuming the yolk sac. Here that nutritious gem is intact and ready for your fry to feed on. The decapsulating process sterilizes the eggs so they cannot carry any bacteria into your fry tank AND there are no empty shells to be ingested by your fry to kill them by blocking their digestive system.

And there are three of my 7ml feeding pipettes

These heavy duty - and most importantly wide barreled - six inch long pipettes are graduated in 1/2 ml increments up the 3ml stem and hold a total of 7ml. They have multiple uses in any fish room or breeding setup. They will come in handy for dispensing medications, transferring fry and eggs (just snip the tip wider with a pair of scissors), delivering small foods right to the fry that need them without spreading them all over the tank, and a whole host of other applications.
