White worm (Enchytraeus spp.) belongs to Enchytraeidae family. In live feed culture, important criteria are high nutritional value, sterile, easy, economic and sustainable production. In comparison with lots of live feed species collected from nature or produced under controlled conditions, white worms have a great value thanks to their high food quality in particular, easy, uninterrupted and economic production in large quantities in sterilized culture conditions. White worms produced under controlled conditions will expand its usage area as a qualified live feed not only in edible fish sector but also in aquarium fish sector.
