Frequently Asked Questions
Are the worms disease-free?
Yes. The worms are raised in isolated, clean Australian waters with virtually no risk of waterborne fish diseases.
Is the protein content the same as live worms?
Yes, the only difference is the removal of moisture during freeze-drying.
Will freeze-dried worms swell in fish stomachs?
No. They reabsorb water but do not expand beyond their original size.
Do I need to rehydrate before feeding?
No, they can be added straight into the tank — either floating or pressed onto the glass.
How are the worms freeze-dried?
They’re cleaned, frozen into 2.5kg blocks, and dried in vacuum chambers that remove water via sublimation without damaging nutrients.
