Hikari Bio-Pure Frozen Tubifex Worms Cube 3.5oz

Hikari Bio-Pure Frozen Tubifex Worms are a higher-protein natural treat for most smaller tropical fish, and for some aquatic reptiles. They are so flavorful that almost any fish takes them right out of the package, which makes them a great choice for picky eaters, conditioning breeders, or tempting a new arrival into feeding. Each 3.5 oz pack holds 32 no-touch cubes. Pair them with your everyday fish food as a supplemental treat.

Why Hikari Frozen

• Naturally rich in the proteins and amino acids most tropical fish love
• Small enough that almost any little fish can eat and digest it
• Gut-loaded with bio-encapsulated multivitamins for better-than-live-food nutrition
• A combination of vitamins and tubifex worms you cannot duplicate at home
• Multi-step cleansing process, free of harmful parasites, bacteria, and foul odor
• 32 easy no-touch cubes make measured feeding simple and mess-free

How to Feed

Pop out one cube at a time and drop it in, or thaw it in a little tank water first and target-feed with a pipette or turkey baster. Feed only what your fish clean up in a few minutes and remove anything left over. Treat it as a supplement alongside a quality staple diet rather than the only thing on the menu, and keep the pack frozen between feedings.

FAQ

What fish is this for? Most smaller tropical fish, plus some aquatic reptiles. It is a favorite for picky eaters, small community fish, and conditioning fish for breeding.

How many cubes are in a pack? 32 cubes in the 3.5 oz (100 g) pack, so you can feed measured portions without thawing the whole thing.

Do I thaw it first? You can drop a cube straight in, but thawing it in a little tank water makes target feeding easier and lets you control the portion.

How is this different from freeze-dried tubifex? Frozen keeps more of the natural moisture and nutrition and is usually taken more eagerly. Freeze-dried is shelf-stable and easier to store. Many keepers use both.

Is it safe? Hikari runs a multi-step cleansing process so the worms are free of harmful parasites, bacteria, and odor, which is the big advantage over live tubifex.
