These are our the same as our nutrient dense Premium Live European Nightcrawlers (ENCs) marketed to the axolotl community- please carefully read all postage requirements before purchase.
We only post on Mondays to suit Australia Post requirements of posting live organisms.
Orders placed after 3pm Sunday will be dispatched the following postal week.
When refrigerated or kept quite cool they maintain their large, lively and healthy size for much longer. Refrigerate 2-3 months, store 4-26 deg for up to 4 weeks.
Long considered the global gold standard as the main feed for axolotl nutrition due to their perfectly balanced and high-protein profile.
Rich in Essential Amino Acids, Omega Fatty Acids (Lipids), and a full spectrum of Trace Minerals and Electrolytes - our worms support vibrant gill health, skeletal integrity, rapid tissue regeneration and more!
We breed and raise our ENCs in a science based worm lab in the South West of WA to produce a feed-grade worm that is larger, more nutrient-dense, and completely free of the bitter toxins secreted by the common compost worm.
These are not your standard compost worm; the standard compost worm - red wrigglers are about 3 - 4 times smaller in size and aptly called Eisenia fetida - fetida meaning foul smell, which is an anti-predation adaptation hence the reason why Axolotls are known to reject the red wiggler / tiger worm.
Our Nightcrawler’s average between 1.2 -1.6 grams each with the odd one coming in around 1.9 grams.
