Hi,

Actually the shrimps eat almost anything your fish will plus algae, vegetables, potatoes, tomatoes, fellow dead shrimps, fishes and almost anything edible. I feed mine fish pallets, tomatoes and boiled sweet potatoes.

Cheers,

KG

PS, or course it meant only normal algae eating shrimps and not banana/wood/Singapore shrimps, those only eat particulates from the water

I have a shrimp tank which I used to breed my shrimp.

Every 2 days I will feed them with Hikaries Crab food pellet.
The pellet got extra calcium which I think can help them to grow faster and change skin offen...

So my shrimp only eat alga and crab pellet.

Thats what I think la...
