Omega One Freeze-Dried Blood Worms Freshwater & Marine Fish Treat, .96-oz jar

Everything in my tank, (cherry shrimp, ember tetra and snails) go crazy over these once I found a proper way to serve it. Did the “open and drop a cube in the tank” that seems most obvious, and they avoided the cube. After some looking on forums and seeing a few fish YouTube channels the method of “wet and drop feed” works the best. Scoop some tank water, set the cube in it. Let it soak and soften, then spread and ensure it’s a wide spread slurry now. Using a food dropper and drop the pippettes contents a little over the intended fish and they will lunge and clear the feeding cloud before it sinks any further. They seem to love the brine slurry more than the flake or pellets.

I bought these for our office betta as he didn't seem very interested in his flake food for the first couple of days we had him. Maybe he was just adjusting because he ended up taking the flakes very nicely, but he hunted and devoured these worms! It was so cute watching him gobble them up, and he did it with gusto! Definitely recommend!

I really like Omega One's selection of foods. From frozen to freeze-dried, Omega One has some of the very best fish foods on the market, and they surely excelled with their freeze-dried bloodworms! Unlike other brands, Omega one's bloodworms have less dust, and more "meat". Usually, when buying any freeze-dried product, it's expected that you'll get dust and shells from whatever it was being processed, but Omega One keeps it to a minimum! Feed as a treat, or to vary diet, freeze-dried is cheaper to feed than frozen or live foods, and are significantly less nutritious, but they're still great to feed your fish! Be sure to soak them in water before feeding, as they can bloat sensitive fish, and also be aware that people have had adverse reactions to breathing in the dust from bloodworms. If you're particularly sensitive, or have allergies, just be cautious!

I have a small 20 gallon with a couple of guppies, neon tetras, glowlight tetras, a ghost shrimp and two mystery snails. The guppies go nuts over these as well as a couple of the tetras. Anything that falls to the bottom gets eaten by the shrimp and the snails, as there's never any left over. I've noticed the colors in the tetras that eat them to be more vivid and shiny as well, and the guppies are gorgeous! The ounce-age seems small, but one jar seems to last forever here. Going on one month and counting with most of the jar left and feeding as a meal 2-3 times a week. Love this!
