Live Blackworms (Lumbriculus variegatus) are a highly nutritious, protein-rich live food ideal for a wide variety of freshwater fish. Their active movement stimulates natural hunting instincts, making them perfect for finicky eaters such as Discus, Bettas, dwarf cichlids, and loaches. Blackworms are excellent for conditioning fish for breeding and encourage natural foraging behavior. They are safe for daily feeding when rinsed properly.
