Do the superworms float?

Most of the superworms will struggle & sink to the bottom..
The ones that freshly molted will float..

I'm not sure whether there is a difference or not in digestion but I can tell that my arowana kills the mealworm in one bite usually, as when it chews on a worm and then decides to spit it out the mealworm is lifeless. Smaller juvie should be fed crickets instead of mealworms though as the exoskeleton may prove difficult for the fish to digest.

Not at all. If the aro doesn't spot it in time it hits the gravel were the cat gets it.

They always seem to drown before the aro gets em, I have thought about doing this though.

I used to give my silver lizards, when I could catch them.
