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 nematode worms.

You also get 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.


Your purchase includes free First Class mail shipping anywhere in the US/Puerto Rico - This item is not available outside the US/Puerto Rico.

We prefer Paypal for payment but US Postal Money Orders available only at your post office are also accepted. I'll contact you regarding payment at the close of the auction.

Thanks for looking at my cultures!
