Tub of 20 Premium Live European Nightcrawlers

Tub of 20 Premium Live European Nightcrawlers (ENCs) - 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.

These are a species of Nightcrawler worm primarily bred around the world for premium live fishing bait and Axolotl feed. It out fishes other worm species (even scrub worms) due to their size and liveliness combined with being robust.

Our premium ENCs are raised through our specialised commercial lab system, designed to produce large, strong and healthy worms.

Versatile for estuary and freshwater fishing.

Throughout the rest of Australia ENCs have been used for: Redfin, Cobbler, Trout, Golden perch (yellowbelly), Carp, Murray cod, Bass, Silver perch, Bream, Flathead, Estuary perch, Whiting, Mullet, Trevally, Dart and many more!

Also used as a nutrient rich meal for Axolotls. Click on our new axolotl tab for more info!

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 and fish 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.
