Key Features:

Nutrient-Rich Diet: These feeder shrimp are a highly nutritious food source, rich in essential proteins and natural vitamins. Their small size makes them suitable for a variety of aquatic creatures, from juvenile fish to picky eaters.
Natural Feeding Behavior: These shrimp exhibit natural behaviors in the water, stimulating predatory instincts and hunting behavior in your fish. This promotes physical activity and mental stimulation, enhancing the overall vitality of your aquatic pets.
Live Food Option: Feeder shrimp are a living food option that can be harvested and fed to your aquarium inhabitants, ensuring that they receive a fresh and wholesome meal.
Algae Control: While primarily used as feeders, brown shrimp also assist in maintaining a clean tank by consuming small amounts of algae and detritus, contributing to the overall health of your aquatic environment.

Care Requirements:

Tank Size: Feeder shrimp can be housed in a wide range of aquarium sizes. A small to medium-sized tank with stable water parameters is typically sufficient for their care.
Water Parameters: Maintain water conditions with a temperature of 68-78°F (20-26°C) and a pH level between 6.5-8.0, depending on the preferences of the species in your aquarium.
Filtration: Adequate filtration is essential to keep the water clean and free from ammonia and nitrite buildup. Regular water changes are also recommended to maintain water quality.
Feeding: Feeder shrimp thrive on a diet of microalgae, detritus, and small organic particles. If used as feeders, offer them a well-balanced diet to ensure they provide optimal nutrition to your aquarium inhabitants.
Compatibility: Feeder shrimp are generally peaceful and can be kept with a variety of fish and invertebrates. However, be cautious when housing them with aggressive or predatory species.
Breeding: These shrimp reproduce in captivity. Provide ample hiding spots and a mature, stable environment for them to breed and maintain a self-sustaining population.
Harvesting: To use feeder shrimp as live food, set up a separate breeding or harvesting tank where you can collect and introduce them to your main aquarium as needed.

Brown feeder shrimp are a valuable addition to your aquarium, offering not only an exceptional source of live food but also contributing to the overall health of your aquatic community.
