I couldn't tell you the nutritional info of a nightcrawler but I certainly wouldn't use them as a staple for a couple of reasons. One is I think it would be very difficult to gutload a nightcrawler and two is I've never heard anyone recommend nightcrawlers as a staple and I've read a lot of recommendations!!
Hope this helps!
