Give your fish a fresh, renewable source of live food!
You are purchasing a VERY HEAVY Grindal worm starter culture prepared directly from my own healthy, established and actively reproducing colonies.
THIS IS A FULL 16 OZ CONTAINER OF HEAVILY POPULATED CULTURE
This is not a small scoop of worms added to mostly fresh substrate.
The entire 16 oz container is filled with heavily populated Grindal worm culture taken from my established producing colonies.
WHAT YOU WILL RECEIVE
• 1 FULL 16 oz container
• Heavily populated established Grindal worm culture
• Live Grindal worms throughout the culture
• Established coconut coir culture medium
• Worms in multiple stages of growth
• A culture ready to continue growing and reproducing with proper care
WHY I CALL IT A "VERY HEAVY" CULTURE
I want my customers to receive a substantial starter culture — not a tiny amount of worms that takes forever to establish.
I personally harvest and prepare each order from my own thriving colonies.
The heavily populated cultures shown in my listing photos are my ACTUAL colonies, not stock photographs.
EXCELLENT LIVE FOOD FOR
• Bettas
• Guppies & Endlers
• Killifish
• Gouramis
• Tetras & Rasboras
• Dwarf Cichlids
• Juvenile fish
• Larger fry
• Many other freshwater fish
Grindal worms are an excellent live food for aquarium keepers and breeders. Their movement encourages a natural feeding response, and once you establish your own colony, you can continue harvesting fresh live food at home.
FEEDING
My Grindal worms are raised primarily on oats, so they are already accustomed to this food.
They can also be fed small amounts of:
• Fish food flakes
• Fish food pellets
• Dog food
IMPORTANT: Feed only a SMALL amount at a time.
Wait until most of the previous food has been consumed before feeding again.
Do not allow uneaten food to remain long enough to spoil or develop mold. Overfeeding is one of the easiest ways to cause problems in a Grindal worm culture.
CULTURE CARE
Keep the coconut coir moist but NEVER soaking wet.
If the substrate begins drying, add a small amount of dechlorinated water.
Keep the culture at comfortable room temperature and away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
Once your colony becomes heavily populated, you can transfer some worms and substrate into another container to create a second producing colony and backup culture.
WHEN YOUR CULTURE ARRIVES
Shipping may cause the coconut coir to become compressed or disturbed.
Gently loosen the surface and allow the culture some time to settle.
Please track your shipment and bring the package indoors as soon as possible after delivery, especially during hot or cold weather.
