This is a live culture of micro worms! Usually perfect for feeding fry and raising other such babies. These are many tiny almost microscopic worms that are super healthy for your fish and other fry. This is a small take-away box full of them.
They will last you quite a while (3 weeks or so) before you need to swap out the food.
Maintaining your culture
Check the culture regularly for signs of mold or contamination. If mold appears, transfer a healthy portion of the culture to a new container with fresh medium. Instant mashed potatoes (unflavored) or rolled oats are common choices for medium.
Feeding
Microworms crawl up the sides of the container when they are ready to be harvested. You can use a brush, plastic scraper, or even your finger to collect them.
They should be kept between 20 and 29 degrees.

Postage costs
All small products, plant or snail orders are $3.99 flat postage. Large products, plant or snail orders are $10.99 tracked postage.
Express is a flat $13.99 no matter the order size other than a few specific giant items (like big tanks).
Any larger tanks are a flat $39 postage. We price the tanks at the Pickup price, and postage always costs us more than $50 for them, so we have to charge a bit extra.
Live Goods and Postage
All live goods are sent with express post for a flat $13.99. Purchases for the week will be cut off SUNDAY - 8pm. All orders placed after that time may be sent on the following week.
Super Safe Postage
All parcels will have the "super safe express" postage option. It is optional, but if selected, we will go above and beyond with extra features to make sure your fish arrive safe.
These extra features (Thicker large parcels, larger and more bags, heating, extra insulation and water for each fish etc...) are expensive and not necessary for most parcels,
so we have made it optional for those who want to take the extra care. For rural locations or just if you want to make sure your fish will be extra safe it is recommended. All postage options still have the DOA guarantee however.
Pickup
Pickup is from our store located at: 153/313 Harris St, Pyrmont, Sydney, NSW. Please let us know before you come after placing your order so we can confirm it will be ready then.
Terms and Conditions
We will refund or replace any livestock that arrives DOA (Dead on Arrival) but cannot guarantee your order will arrive on time since we have no control over the postage service. If you have any issues with your order please let us know.
Enjoy!
