[ARRIVED 21-MAY-2025] Blackworms Pellets 100g | High-Protein Sinking Food

Description

 

Unleash the Predatory Instinct. The Power of Live Blackworms, in a Pellet.

Give your fish the taste they crave without the hassle! Our Blackworms Pellets are a revolutionary, convenient formula that captures the nutritional power and irresistible flavour of live blackworms. These slow-sinking pellets are packed with protein to fuel growth, enhance vibrant colours, and stimulate feeding response in even the most finicky eaters. It's the ultimate high-reward food for discerning fish.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Irresistible Flavour Profile: Formulated with real blackworm meal as a primary ingredient, this pellet triggers a powerful feeding instinct in carnivorous and omnivorous fish.

  • Promotes Growth & Colour: Exceptionally high protein content supports muscle development, energy, and brings out the most vibrant reds, oranges, and natural colours in your fish.

  • Ideal for Picky Eaters: The scent and taste are known to entice difficult-to-feed species like wild-caught fish, discus, bettas, and bottom dwellers onto a prepared diet.

  • Sinking Formulation: The dense pellet sinks quickly, making it perfect for mid-water and bottom-feeding fish like loaches, catfish, cichlids, and goldfish.

  • Clean & Safe: A safe, nutrient-dense alternative to live blackworms, free from parasites and contaminants. It also produces less waste than live foods, supporting cleaner water.

Product Details:

  • For Best Results: Use as part of a varied diet alongside other high-quality foods like flakes, frozen, and live treats.

FAQ Section (Suggested for the product page):

Q: My fish are picky and only eat live food. Will they eat this?
A: Yes! This is one of the best foods for weaning fish off live diets. The strong scent and flavour of blackworms are highly appealing. Try soaking the pellet in a bit of tank water to release more scent initially.

Q: Are these pellets good for fish that need a high-protein diet?
A: Absolutely. With blackworm meal as a leading ingredient, these pellets are formulated to be protein-rich, making them an excellent staple for carnivorous and omnivorous species.

Q: Can I feed this to my community tank?
A: Yes, it is an excellent food for a mixed community. The sinking nature ensures all levels of the tank get fed, from top-dwelling fish that will snatch it as it sinks to the bottom-feeders who will clean up the rest.

Q: How does this compare to frozen blackworms?
A: These pellets offer similar nutritional and flavour benefits but with much greater convenience, a longer shelf life, and without the risk of introducing parasites or pollutants that can sometimes come with live/frozen foods.

    Live Arrival & Ordering FAQ

    Do you offer a live arrival guarantee?

    Yes. All livestock is covered by our Live Arrival Guarantee.

    In the rare event of DOA, please contact us promptly with clear photos of the livestock in the original unopened bag.

    Please review our full DOA and store policies before purchase.

    Can you ship to all states in Australia?

    No. Due to state restrictions, we cannot ship livestock or live plants to WA and TAS.

    What should I check before ordering?

    Before placing an order, make sure:

    • Your tank is fully cycled and stable
    • Your aquarium has enough space for the species
    • Your current livestock are compatible in temperament, size, and requirements
    • Your water parameters, habitat, and temperature suit the species
    • You are not adding too many fish at once
    What should I expect when my fish arrives?

    It is normal for fish, shrimp, or snails to look pale, stressed, or less active after shipping.

    This is temporary. Most livestock will settle and regain colour within a few days.

    How long does it take for fish to settle in?

    Most livestock will take 3–7 days to fully adjust to their new environment.

    Should I feed my fish immediately after arrival?

    No. We recommend waiting 24 hours before feeding to allow them to settle.

    If you already have fish in your tank, feeding them before introducing new arrivals can help reduce stress.

    Why do fish sometimes struggle after being added to a tank?

    In most cases, issues are caused by tank conditions, not shipping.

    • Uncycled or unstable tanks
    • Poor water parameters
    • Overstocking
    • Unsuitable tank mates
    What is Nano Tanks Australia’s main tip for new livestock?

    Most livestock losses happen in immature or unstable tanks, not during shipping.

    If your setup is not fully established, the risk to new arrivals is significantly higher.

    Not sure if this fish is right for your setup?

    If you are unsure whether this species suits your setup, contact us before ordering and we’ll help point you in the right direction.
