Hi, You are buying a microworms starter culture, using it you can very easy grow your own live fish food. It's ideal alternative to other fish foods for fry.
Micro Worms are extremely prolific and easy to grow at home.
Actually, these little “worms” aren’t really worms at all, they are the nematodes.
Feeding fry live food instead of powdered flake food or similar increases the survival rate for most species and will
also aid rapid growth and development. Live food is less likely to foul the water, since live creatures will stay
alive until consumed instead of starting to decompose.
If it Moves, Bite it. Baby fishes operate on instinct. Their instincts tell them to “taste” anything smaller than them that moves.
Picky Eaters. Since commercial foods don’t wiggle, many of the smallest egglayer baby fishes just ignore them. These would include:
Bettas and Gouramis,
Angelfishes,
Barbs and Danios, Tetras.
More information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panagrellus_redivivus or google microworms, as well watch Youtube.

Worms Sink. Microworms wiggle like crazy, but they can’t swim. They fall to the bottom fairly rapidly. This means you should keep your fry in a tank devoid of gravel, so the worms don’t disappear into the muck on the bottom. Their sinking tendency makes them an ideal food for baby corydoras.
