Frozen daphnia looks weird

[SuperSword48]

I only use about a quarter of a daphnia block when I feed with it. So I cut it on a paper towel and put it back in the freezer. Today when I went to get the second piece of the block it felt dry and weird. Has it gone bad?

Sounds like freezer burn. I wouldn't use it.

Any way to prevent that? And will it hurt the fish if used because I used it before today but didn’t think anything of it until now.

I usually just thaw out any slightly freezer burnt food and use it since my freezer is especially cold, and I’d hate to be constantly waste food. But that’s just me, my frogs and fish have all eaten it thawed out before.

Easiest way to prevent is put the unused part in a ziplock bag. Maybe keep the whole package in one.

But it is safe for fish right? I’m worried about my fishies lol. Also thank you for your help.

If in doubt, cut off the weird part
