Xtreme Shrimpee Sticks for Shrimp
Aquatic shrimp are small and beautifully colored freshwater invertebrates that thrive in well-established tanks. These small aquatic creatures also prefer tanks full of freshwater aquatic plants that provide grazing areas and places to hide, and fine gravel or sandy substrate that they can “sift” through to forage for food.
There are many attractively colored color variants such as Cherry Shrimp, also known, as Neocaridina davidi, that is bright red. But there are many other color varieties from blue to green, and even black, and with different patterns on their bodies. For these small and peaceful shrimp to thrive, breed, develop, and maintain their attractive coloration, they need to be fed high-quality food for shrimp.
While it is true that aquatic shrimp will eat food formulated for fish, you finally can feed your shrimp with food that was specifically developed to meet their caloric and dietary needs, keeping them healthy and thriving. Higher levels of vitamins balanced mineral packs, scientifically selected proteins, and special additives packed into these shrimp food pellets will help the shrimp grow better and stay strong and healthy in higher stock densities. Shrimpee is also formulated for super-intensive systems; i.e., small nano tanks, that utilize zero or very low water exchange and bio-floc* technologies.
With Xtreme Shrimpee Sticks taking care of your shrimp is super easy. This high-quality shrimp food will provide them with all the necessary ingredients.

* The function of the biofloc is to reduce the nitrogenous metabolic waste (ammonia, nitrite) produced by shrimp feeding and production. Ammonia consumed by heterotrophic bacteria becomes protein, which can then be consumed by shrimp and converted into growth.
