Frequently Asked Questions

Are freeze-dried tubifex worms safer than live tubifex?
AQUAV tubifex is freeze-dried and treated with gamma radiation. This gives your fish the benefits of tubifex without the disease risks associated with live worms.

How much should I feed my fish?
Feed only what your fish can eat in 3 minutes, then remove any leftovers so no uneaten food remains in the aquarium.

Why is it important to remove uneaten food?
Leftover protein-rich food breaks down and can pollute your water. This happens faster in warm South African summers, when tank temperatures rise. Clearing leftovers helps keep your water quality stable.

Is this food meant for freshwater or marine aquariums?
AQUAV Freeze Dried Tubifex Worms are categorised as a freshwater fish food and are intended for freshwater aquarium fish.

Will tubifex help improve my fishes' colour?
The food is formulated to help enhance colour. It also provides high protein and supports immunity as part of a balanced diet.

Which pack size should I choose?
All sizes contain the same freeze-dried tubifex cubes. Smaller tanks or occasional treat feeding suit a smaller pack, while larger collections or regular feeding suit a bigger pack.
