Regular Member Chester's_Mommy Posted August 17, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted August 17, 2008 A friend whose betta just died gave me a big container of freezedried bloodworms that she obviously doesn't need anymore. I was thinking of tossing them into the gel food I am (bravely bravely) going to attempt to make today, but I suddenly realized I have no idea how old the bloodworms are. Do freezedried things go bad? Or can I safely use them? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member wyofish Posted August 19, 2008 Regular Member Share Posted August 19, 2008 Hi! I've personally never heard of them going bad but I do tend to stick to the same rules for freeze-dried bloodworms as I do for all my other dry fish food...if it's over six months old I don't feed it to my fish (though I often still use certain foods to feed my live critter cultures that are to be used for fish food). This seems to be a fairly widely-accepted rule of thumb but perhaps someone else will chime in with something a little more specific. Any chance you could ask the person who gave them to you when they were purchased? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
