River Shrimp Portion

River Shrimp Portion

River Shrimp are a great Live Fish food. They are very nutritious and can be kept for a considerable length of time so that you don't have to use them all straight away.

They are often fed to large marine fish such as triggers, puffers and eels, but are equally appealing to tropical fish like red tail catfish, King Kong Parrots, oscars and other predators that may have outgrown the usual fresh foods like brine shrimp and bloodworm. Turtles in particular enjoy these shrimp as they are a natural part of the turtle's diet. Rivershrimp are a brackish water species and will not survive in a freshwater environment, so they can't be kept in freshwater aquariums. They will however live a long time if kept in their own water with a filter and fed fish food.

Please be aware that rivershrimp are very large in comparison to all other live foods. Make sure your fish is large enough to eat them. Remove any dead shrimp that may have been left behind by the fish as it may otherwise compromise your water quality.
