Hello everyone!
Just got my first order of frozen blackworms from Dan over at aquatic foods about 10 minutes ago and wanted to share myy toughts with you so far.
First, shipping, comunication, and follow-up...phenomenal as usual (I have ordered live worms from Dan for about 10 years now), box got here on time and the contents were frozen as frozen can be!
I must confess that I over ordered, this is a lot of worms and even with my friend Bob taking half of them, my freezer is still full! My half consists of 10 individual zip bags with 2 trays of frozen worms in each, these worms are densily packed in the trays and with not a lot of water at all! A little bit of worms is enough to feed a lot of fish!!!
So I took a bit and couldn't resist feeding my fish right away...what can I say I was excited!
Well they took to it like moths to light! They went nuts over it and ate it up! My only fault was over feeding, I was not aware how much a little bit was, it was a lot! Good thing they like it since I have a freezer full of them!
I let a little thaw out and what I saw was worms that look like live worms and smell like fresh live blackworms, if you have ever kept them, you know what I mean! My point is that this smelled right and looked right so I am very happy with it!
A bonus of these will be for the ray keepers, first thing that poped in my mind was when I kept them live worms were the best thing to feed them since they landed on the bottom and were them eaten by the rays. With this frozen food one will be able to do the same without the need to care for live worms!
Currently I have 8 breeding pairs of discus, 13 wild fish, and 8 assorted Asian discus, all receiving this food as part of their diet.
Time will tell how the fish react, etc. with more people buying these I am sure more feedback will be made available but I am sold!!!! Thanks Dan for another great alternative to feeding my fish!
