Ornamental worms ideal for tropical and Mediterranean aquaria.

Mediterranean worms of comparable beauty to worms that are imported from tropical areas, Worms that are produced by breeding and therefore economically more competitive and profitable.

The use and marketing of our worms will make a significant contribution to environmental protection by avoiding fishing and depletion of these organisms in the wild and avoiding the accidental and potentially harmful insertion of non-Mediterranean species in our seas.

REMEDIALIFE

The REMEDIALIFE project is also very close to your industry.

I am Adriana Giangrande, professor of Zoology at the University of Salento scientific manager and coordinator of the REMEDIALIFE project.

For over 20 years I have been dealing with invertebrate breeding in association with mariculture.

REMEDIALIFE is a great European project that involves the production of ornamental marine invertebrates (worms).But why is this important?

Here are the main advantages:

Beauty is equal and sometimes higher than imported ornamental worms.
Low production cost which is reflected in the selling price and profitability.
Environmental protection by avoiding fishing and depletion of these organisms in nature.
Coipled with the accidental and potentially harmful introduction of non-Mediterranean species in our seas.

MANY ADVANTAGES

effectiveness, economy and the environment

Our worms are very beautiful and resistant, suitable for beautifying Mediterranean and tropical aquaria.

They are very similar to those that are sold today and used as ornamental animals, but worms are caught on the coral reef and imported, all characteristics that determine a high purchase cost.

The advantage of using our worms is twofold.

ECONOMIC: they are priced lower than those imported as they are derived from breeding.
ENVIRONMENTAL: their use in the market would avoid fishing and the consequent impoverishment of precious tropical natural populations and the importation and accidental insertion of potentially harmful species not present in the Mediterranean.

LIFE is the EU’s financial instrument supporting environmental protection, nature conservation and climate change projects across the EU. Since 1992, LIFE has co-funded over 4500 projects. For the 2014-2020 funding period, LIFE will contribute approximately 3.4 billion euros to environmental and climate protection ….
