How It Works

1

Bait

Slide the lid open and put cooked prawn in the centre bait box.

2

Place

Slide the lid closed and set the trap in the tank after lights out.

3

Collect

Leave it overnight, then lift it out and empty the worms.

Why the LCZ Trap Works

Cone entries

Round cones point inward, so worms get in easily and have a hard time finding the way out.

Isolated bait box

Holes on all four sides release scent into the water. The bait stays contained in the box.

Slide-on lid

A dovetail lid opens and closes with one hand. The box is open at the top, so it's easy to fill.

Solid PETG

Solid walls with no hollow pockets and no metal parts.

Reusable

Rinse in fresh water, let it dry, and use it again.

Pro Tip

Use cooked prawn for the most stable results. Replace the prawn daily, and always put in fresh prawn after cleaning the trap. Old bait can cause an unnecessary ammonia spike.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which size should I choose?

The 4-entry suits nano and smaller tanks. The 8-entry suits larger tanks or heavier infestations.

What bait should I use?

Cooked prawn is highly recommended. Use a small piece so it fits in the centre box, and replace it daily and each time you clean the trap.

How do I clean it?

Rinse in fresh water and let it dry. Don't use soaps or chemicals.

Can I reuse it?

Yes. The trap is solid PETG and designed to be used again and again.

Intended for aquarium use only. Check the trap regularly and remove worms promptly. Product images are digital renders of the design. Each trap is 3D printed in PETG, so you may see fine layer lines and small variations in finish. This doesn't affect how the trap works.
