Assassin Snails: They can Have Their Snails and Bloodworms Too!

The Swarm Attacks the Bloodworms!
Assassin Snails are amazing little creatures! One of the common questions I hear is what do people feed them once the little snail killing machines has turned the aquarium into a pest snail graveyard? The answer is they will eat anything with good protein content but I have found that one magic food they love is frozen bloodworms.

I have attached pictures of the little meat munching maniacs in action when I threw a bloodworm cube into their temporary holding tank.

You will notice that they swarmed the wormy cube like marauding Walking Dead “walkers” swarm an injured bleeding human. They came from all corners of the tank and attacked without mercy and feasted like they were going to be executed at 6am the next morning.

The Assassins Munching Away!
Of course, when you have the opportunity to feed these little critters live snails go for it but when this option is exhausted go to the local pet store and secure yourself some frozen bloodworms; your snails will thank you.

If you do not believe me I invite you to examine the pictures I have attached; you cannot go wrong feeding the little killers bloodworms.
