Posted by: hs012 Wed, 22 Jun 2005 5:55 pm
Hi,
Just wanted to know where and in what quatity folks here buy their frozen blood worm.
I have been buying some in the past but as I buy individual packs instead of a box, I have found that they are in consistantly kept.
There have been times when I found the whole pack of blood worm as having a very dark color and bad smell. To me this was sign of the individual packs have undergone multiple thawing and refreezing.
Any recommendation would be great on how to buy them and from whom. . Currently only have 3 ranchus ( 2inch big) so cant consume too much.
Thanks
Lum

Generally blood worms can kept long times , will not turn bad if you have keep in the freezer without defrost. It may be the cheap brand you buy. Try "thumb brand gold packing", bloodworms are big & solid red look very fresh when you defrost it.

Yes no joke, you can try areas like Kaki Bukit Bedok Reservoir Road near to hawker center and Enos C.C. sorry i cant rememeber the LFS name. But not many LFS selling this product. Worms are bigger & fresher compare to hikari or other china brands.

While on this topic of frozen BWs, I have recently opened a new box of Hikari and noticed that the worms were bigger this time round.Wonder if any other bros have the same experience.

concur. they have less of those lousy worms. each cube looks good solid red.
but then .. you know i know.. big red colorful worms doesn't really mean good healthy worms

Oh yes low,I happen to buy a box to test.But to play safe I defrost it in a separate container and feed the worms without the water from the cube.You can literally lift out the worms with your fingers without much debris or moulted shells.Thxs again for the referal.
