Bloodworm Frozen Cubes

[SchottayB]

Do you feed your fish these frozen? (Drop it into the tank)

Do you feed your fish these frozen (Hold it at the surface of the water and let them eat from your fingers)

Do you get some tank water in a cup and drop the frozen cube in, wait for it to thore then pure in a bit at a time?



Thanks

I get a petri dish and let it melt in the fridge, then drop it in, I understand it's a bad idea to feed frozen because it can form Ice crystals inside the fish.

I drop them in frozen its fun watching them rip it to bits.

I defrost them in a little tank water,then put them in a few at a time,when they stop diving for them after a few mins i stop feeding them,otherwise the tank has bloodworm floating around with no takers

Iput mine in frozen and let the warm water / feeding frenzied fish do the work, not hear about the ice crystal theory before, cannot imagine it would be any more harmful than us eating icecream or something

Been doing it this way for years without any incidents so far

I cut off the required number of cubes, then place in warm water to defrost, then tip them in. This way I can spread out the worms so all the fish get a chance at them.

I dropped the bloodworm in frozen so it sinks to the bottom for the catfish, other frozen food such as daphnia, or glassworm (i have varied packs you get) that tend to defrost very quick once in the tank and i try and spread it about as it melting for all the smaller fish get a chance for some. di

yes, to all three.

Used to defrost in tank water and tip in, now I hold it in my fingers and let them fish hand feed, they love it.

I thaw mine in a cup of water first and feed them a bit at a time. I have too few fish in any one tank to put an entire cube in. Two cubes will more than suffice for my eight tanks.

When I am feeding frozenfoods, I take it and put it in a fish net. I then run warm water over the fish net. Seems to do the trick for me!

I just drop the cubes in frozen. They go mad, with my clown and Pakistani loaches running off with cubes to try and deny other fish any. It's a feeding frenzy!
