I've had my frozen blood worms for about six months and haven't used them in a while.

Can I still use them?

Do they look freezer burned, pale & dryish looking? Then throw them away. Or are they in the cubes? If so then they're probably ok.

I'd use them. Are they Hikari?

As long as it stays frozen and not freezer burnt about two years or so.

It usually takes me 6-8 mo. to go thru my supply cause I order in bulk. (& they don't eat frozen everyday) If it stays sealed & frozen, no worries. "T"

Keep your frozen foods in a Ziplock freezer bag, and they'll stay fresh longer. Try to press out as much air as possible before re-sealing it.
