Aquatic Arts White Worm Starter Culture – Live Food
Live Food for Fish Fry & Small Inverts
White Worms (Enchytraeus albidus) are a classic and highly nutritious live food that’s perfect for conditioning adult fish and feeding fry or smaller predatory species. Small Frogs, Newts and Salamanders also love these live worms. Our White Worm Starter Culture comes ready to grow, making it easy to establish your own colony at home. These soft-bodied worms are packed with protein and healthy fats, making them an excellent supplement to dry foods.
Cultures are started fresh at the time of shipment and include live worms, active bedding, and enough starter food to get you going.
Why We Recommend This:
-
Excellent Protein Source – Ideal for fry growth, fish conditioning, and boosting breeding readiness.
-
Easy to Cultivate – Maintain your own colony with minimal effort and consistent harvests.
-
Great for Picky Eaters – Many nano fish and inverts eagerly accept white worms.
-
Cost-Effective – Grow your own live food at home and reduce reliance on commercial feeds.
How to Use:
-
Remove lid and place culture in a cool, dark space (ideally 50–65°F / 10–18°C).
-
Feed small amounts of oatmeal, bread soaked in milk, or specialized worm food 2–3 times a week.
-
Harvest worms as needed using a piece of glass or plastic on top of the substrate.
For best results, avoid keeping the culture in warm areas or direct sunlight, and don’t overfeed to prevent mold.
Ideal For:
-
Dwarf cichlids
-
Bettas and gouramis
-
Killifish and livebearers
-
Freshwater nano predators and fry
- Frogs
- Newts and Salamanders
Storage & Care Tips:
-
Keep the culture slightly moist but not soggy.
-
Stir the bedding gently every few days to maintain airflow.
-
Replace substrate every 1–2 months to keep the colony healthy.

All Aquatic Arts live food cultures come with a 100% live arrival guarantee. If your culture arrives in poor condition, contact us within 2 hours of delivery with clear photos, and we’ll make it right.
