i am one of the rare & few who wants tubifex worms

but you can't buy these, especially in canada it seems

i saw a forum comment/post (another forum) of someone who fed their fish some freeze-dried tubifex, ... not all was eaten and before he knew it he had tubifex all over in his tank.

k, in my mind that's one source of tubifex, but that was 6 years ago, ... it's more than likely the company has updated their process

---

has anyone else had any bad experiences with tubifex like this ?
have you heard of anyone having similar experiences ?
do you know what brand ?
freeze-dried/frozen ?

i figure there's gotta be a way to get these guys in my tank

I have used the freeze dried but stopped because they are messy; its been maybe a year since I last used them. My catfish love them but I dont want to clean the tank after each feeding.

I used this once but it's been a while the mess was unbelievable and the fish didn't seem to be that interested in it either

but no baby tubifex worms ?

To be honest in my experience the fish seem to prefer brine shrimp blood worm or daphnia but your experience may be different king British was the brand I had never again
