    Default Frozen Blackworms

    Anyone know who makes them? I don't have the time to keep live ones.

    Blackworms don't freeze well...they turn to mush... so its unlikely that you'll be able to buy them frzen.. On the off chance that you do...be very careful...everyone I know that ever tried freezing them and feeding them to their discus wound up with Dead fish. (myself included)..no one knows exactly why...I guess it creates a bacterial cocktail or something.


    if you want frzn... stick with foods like Hikari blood worms, glass worms, and Brine shrimp.

    Great, thanks! I'm obviously fairly new. I know much, but haven't come across this info yet. Thanks again.
