Night Crawlers - Cup (Live)

Live feeder nightcrawlers are large, protein-packed earthworms and one of the most natural, irresistible treats you can offer. Sold by the cup of roughly 12 to 15 crawlers, they are perfect for conditioning big appetites and adding variety to a staple diet. Round out feeding time with more from our fish food collection and gear up in our freshwater collection.

Great For

• Large freshwater fish such as oscars, cichlids, arowanas, and larger catfish
• Aquatic turtles and many pet reptiles and amphibians
• Conditioning fish for spawning with a rich, natural protein source
• Adding variety and enrichment to a pellet or flake diet

Feeding Tips

Rinse the crawlers in cool water before feeding. For smaller mouths, cut them into bite-size pieces so nothing goes to waste. Offer them as a treat once or twice a week alongside a balanced staple diet, and remove anything uneaten to keep your water clean.

Keeping Them Fresh

Store the cup in the refrigerator, not the freezer. Kept cool and lightly moist, nightcrawlers stay lively for a week or two. Pick out any that are not moving so the rest stay healthy.
