Where do Blackworms come from?

Lately we've been asked numerous times where Blackworms come from.

Maybe this will help to clarify. There are only two sources of California Blackworms that supply the United States. Both here in California. A third is outside Melbourne Australia.

One California Farm is in Northern California. Their worms are harvested out of the ponds of a privately owned hatchery. Cleaned, and packed on the hatchery property. They supply a online reseller, California Tropical Fish wholesalers who in turn deliver to LFS's. Some of those wholesalers ship to out of state LFS's who in turn sell retail.

We, Aquatic Foods Blackworm Co. are the other. We supply various Wholesalers, retail Tropical Fish and Pet stores, Institutions and the Hobbyist direct.

Here are a few photos of our Farm and Facility. Please feel free to email to blkworm@aol.com with any questions or inquiries.
