Shrimp Food

We stock a range of shrimp food in different formats, including lollies, jelly and feeding balls, with flavours like spirulina, nettle, artemia and catappa. Lollies and balls can be left in the tank for shrimp to graze on at their own pace, making them easy to dose without overfeeding. Whether you want a varied diet or something specific like extra vitamins and minerals, there's a flavour to suit.

Feeding balls and lollies are designed to sink and stay intact for a while, so shrimp can pick at them over a day or two rather than everything being eaten in one go. It's worth removing any uneaten food after a day or two to avoid fouling the water. Rotating between a few different flavours helps make sure your shrimp are getting a varied diet rather than the same thing every time. Not sure how much to feed or how often?
